Global Luxury

Thursday

It’s been an eventful few weeks filled with conferences and meetings. Additionally, I’ve been preparing this special post to share with you. I am delighted to finally introduce you to the new fashion brand, Assali.

Still in the first year of the brand’s unveiling, Assali has already gained some buzz through the fashion channels, including the likes of E! News’ correspondent, Catt Sadler, amongst others.

Assali was kind enough to let me try-on pieces from their Fall/Winter 2013 collection so that I could share an exclusive preview with you. Here's a glance at a few day and night captures in the pieces from the brand.

E! News anchor Catt Sadler  Assali Dress
Designer, Eva Boulos, (Assali’s creator) has used her experience with diverse cultures as a source of influence as well as the groundwork for designing. The Port-au-Prince native creates comfortable apparel for the contemporary woman. As a globe traveller myself, I can definitely see the worldly influences in her design aesthetic.

The line itself is a fresh take on luxe-style. It’s sophisticated and edgy, yet there are also artistic silhouettes with a sexy undertone. Deep jewel tones of emerald, and plum-burgundy instantly catches your eye—impacting the collection as a whole, and creating a hybrid of casual dramatic elegance.

One of my favourite pieces is the Carrie dress, as I became quite a fan of the side panel slashes with contrasting fabric. It’s perfect for going out and very comfortable … there’s also a shorter length version of the Carrie dress and Milano dress as well!

    All you need now is a red carpet to saunter along or a grand staircase to sweep down. All three dresses are simply stunning on you and I really like the global influences on the designs.

    Her clothes are sleek, modern, with many special details. I like the body hugging elements of the dresses and I can see how her Caribbean background influences her clothing.

    For me the most important thing is that many women of many sizes can wear this style of dresses.

    How lovely. It must have been fun to try on all the pieces. What I like the most is the colours, those deep jewel tones are gorgeous. That's what I have been incorporating more of into my winter wardrobe in recent times.

  50. I love the dress with the sheer slashes in it's stunning. I also liked the burgundy one with the sequin belt both of them are amazing. I think you have the body for them as the nature of the fabric looks like it'll show any lumps or bumps.
