LAFW Fall 2013: Jen Awad
Los Angeles designer Jen Awad went old-Hollywood glamour with an edge for her collection, shown March 9 at Concept LA Fashion Week at Siren Studios in Hollywood.
Models walked the runway in jewel-toned velvet shawl-collar coats and tuxedos, worn with cropped tuxedo shirts. A diaphanous white poet top extended to the floor for dramatic effect, and an empire-waist dress with delicate black ribbon trim seemed straight out of the wardrobe department.
Highlights included a black velvet coat dress with a yoke of gold-flecked net, and a shrug made from upturned feathers framed the face.
The gold-flecked net was used again for a belted swing coat and as side panels of a velvet dress that was not for the faint-of-heart.
