My Indian Inspiration!

BE INSPIRED.  BE CREATIVE.  BE ENERGETIC.  BE YOURSELF.
The effortless beauty I saw in India inspired me. It opened my eyes to endless possibilities and I wanted to translate this magical feeling into the Kiara Collection for the modern western woman.
It is truly something spectacular.


One cannot visit India without appreciating the magnificent beauty of this country. Women dressed in bold, vibrant colored Sari's with irregular hems and draped in luxurious gold. Such Splendor.








CHERISH INDIA

On my journey to the historical Taj Maha I saw textured cloth worn as scarves, ikat and stunningly colored prints in which I visualized bringing softly textured pieces to pair with prints in Kiara . This gives versatility to those who love mixing texture and prints which is dramatic and an important trend that will be happening going forward.











Burnt out print applique tops placed with textured bottoms or two bold bright colored pieces worn together. Perfect looks to take Kiara from day to evening. Reminiscent of the beautifully worn native dress of the women of India while shopping in the markets or wearing during holy observation. The color of the earth, the clear blue sky and the magnificent treasures of India can be seen throughout my Kiara Fall Collection.


अच्छी तरह से अब के लिए अलविदा (goodbye for now)
