Showing at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Stockholm, the ALTEWAISAOME S/S 13 collection was a show of Scandinavian design talent.
For spring, the Swedish design duo Natalia Altewai and Randa Saome opted for a collection that was true to their DNA. The minimalist collection was true to the label's self-described mix of "Scandinavian simplicity with international high fashion." ALTEWAISAOME, founded in 2009, is now a household standout at Mercedes-Benz Stockholm Fashion week.
This season was no exception for the label. Standout pieces for SS13 played with proportion, silhouette and geometric aestheticism. This look was composed of minimalist lines and multi-depth layering complimented by a muted palette that was at times bold with punches of color. With these exemplary attention to detail, ALTEWAISAOME is sure to become a well-known design house internationally.
