Urban. Luxury. Drama

Growing up in Kimberley, Orapeleng Modutle always dreamed of a career in fashion.

OM Style Avenue is a selective celebration of inspirational designs and artistic garments that bring beauty, grace and elegance into our lives. They believe that fashion and beauty are not simply about image – these elements are cultural barometers for what is going on in society and in the lives of women and men. It’s a story that must be told visually through a collection of powerful images.

According to Mercedes Benez Fashion Week the collection is inspired by ‘Maleficent, The Queen Of The Forest” and the designs are a tale of intrigue and drama set against urban luxury with references from the Medival Era with lots of flamenco frills and ruffled silhouettes. #AMAZING

The materials used in this beautiful collection consists of French lace, organza, silk and a “whole lot of luxurious fabrics with juxtaposition of comfort and less of the bridal.”

 

“The new trend is concentrated bright colours. People have moved away from the pastel colours!” – Orapeleng Modutle
