Armine Tadevosyan — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 21:05:36 +0000

Arevik Simonyan – the Armenian fashion designer representing Kivera Naynomis brand, had her debut runway show at Russian Fashion Week with spring-summer 2008 collection.

This first on RFW podium Armenian collection was presented on a stage covered with national handmade carpets and under the sound of folk drum music. In contrary to the national style interior, the collection had the sense of European sophistication and elegance.

In this very feminine collection Arevik presents the ideal image of her heroine – unpredictable, mysterious, powerful, but at the same time very delicate and feminine. Day and evening dresses in silky satins and draped fine jerseys of saturated colours, pale pearly floating skirts and pleated blouses, violets, pinks and olive shades on taffeta and jersey combinations.

The bright metallic accents and glassy beads on belts, shoes and clutch bags en-reached the Armenian nature like colour pallet with modern smart sharpness.
