First look: Obakki’s fall line is for the rock ’n’ roll glamour goddess

By Kristi Carignan

Attending a highly-anticipated fashion event and rubbing elbows with Californian blogger Rumi Neely (fashiontoast.com) is a fabulous way to spend an evening. A few weeks ago, fellow intern Dahlia James and I got to attend a fall fashion show at Obakki’s Gastown shop (44 Water St., 604-669-9727, obakki.com). Building on the brand’s staple subdued colour palette, grey tones dominated, and the runway saw plenty of rock ’n’ roll meets funky-slash-edgy meets glam goddess designs. Slouchy sweaters, tailored trousers and aviator-style jackets were juxtaposed by feminine draped sweater dresses. One of my favourite pieces was the button-front cropped capelet in a sumptuous sequined champagne silk. A close second, third and fourth: a slouchy top, an asymmetrical draped sleeveless dress, and a V-neck dress that would make anyone’s waist look teensy-tiny.
