The Gary Graham S/S '16 line is crafted for artistic vintage lovers. This abstract collection displays dark and gloomy styles influenced by an era past.
In addition to an overarching Victorian theme, Graham was able to weave in a few other inspirations such as Iranian carpets, Buddhist vestments, historical mourning apparel and filmmaker Jack Smith. In this collection, Graham fans are exposed to full-sleeved celestial blouses, high necklines, Peruvian knits as well as a multitude of dark and dramatic silk dresses, while bleached grungy dresses are the definite highlight.
The Gary Graham S/S '16 collection is full of multifaceted looks that seem to work well with one another despite the wide range of influences.
