Earlier this month I went to the exhibition opening of a fashion and photography collaboration called 'Urban Renaissance' from two up and coming Baltic artists; designer Sarmite Ostanevica and photographer Aiga Redmane.
The event was sponsored by GIN MARE by way of delicious cocktails and showcased the delicate, feminine spring/summer 2012 collection from Sarmite with Aiga's dark, ethereal photography which plays with natural light and the movement of the lightweight fabrics.
The new line focuses on formal, classical garment shapes (elegant skirts with above the knee hemlines, chic shirts buttoned up, smart tailored dresses) and transforms them by using light cotton, sheer silk and neutral colours (taupe, cream and greys) for a sensuous, contemporary take on unique style for the modern woman. One to watch.
