Romanian Fashion Week: Claudia Castrase
Posted May 20th, 2008 by Stylish Girl
One of my favorite collections shown at Romanian Fashion Week is "Geometrics" by Claudia Castrase. The designer made her debut with the fall 2007 season and, in a very brief time, she has developed a well-established brand and a recognizable style based on simple, minimalist cuts, mostly body conscious and a preference for abstract, geometric details.

For her fall 2008 collection, suggestively called "Geometrics", she uses contrasting V shaped strips as leitmotif. Different sizes, colors and fabrics, the graphic theme is found in every garment, be it dresses, skirts or jumpsuits.

The colors: bright blue and yellow alongside neutral white, black and grey emphasize the geometric pattern while the soft, comfortable fabrics (wool, kasha, and jersey) add a lot of chic appeal.

The shoulders on some of the tops look too "Star Trek" for me, but I really love the skirts. The V-shaped stripes look very modern and quite flattering.
HI!

Her collection is great! I really like and would wear it almost entirely! I like especially the skirts and dressees. Way to go for her!
I just realize now that the V-shape is so attractive.
