It felt like one was watching a modern recreation of a novel by Tolstoy at the show of Olga Samoschenko, a talented designer from Byelorussia who seems assured of a great future, Fashion Wire Daily reported.
Samoschenko showed beautiful gauze jackets and coats, cut snuggly to the body, trimmed with accordion pleat silk and finished with tiny pleats and puckers.
She has a great sense of self-restraint. Once again, where other local designers slam on heavy handed embroidery, she used just the right amount of crystals, hand stitching and beading.
Her silhouette was also very fine - low-waisted, flat front pants paired with courtly, curvy jackets all looked great.
