Juan Carlos Obando Fall 2016


Show Review: Juan Carlos Obando Fall 2016
The romance and glamour of dinners and dances in South America in the 60’s and 70’s were Juan Carlos Obando’s inspiration for Fall 2016: the kind he would have witnessed as a child in Barranquilla, Colombia as he isn’t yet forty. Grace and gesture are signatures of his brand and he continued with that love of flow and motility by way of undulating ruffles, thigh-high slits, tie-waists, and cutout shoulders.

Bold colors are another of his trademarks: forget the old “Winter means dark hues and neutrals” fashion adage. Cherry red, mustard yellow, and dynamic teal were placed alongside black, white, blush, and navy.

Obando sure knows how to create a statement-making detail. Pairing a single, head-turning and collarbone-grazing earring with any ensemble will most likely get a woman noticed, though layering a sleeveless turtleneck over a ruffle-accented top with a strappy neckline can easily do the same.

In a day and age where trends punctuate this very month at hand, it’s refreshing and also quite practical to see a designer like Obando cling to what is quintessentially him: beautiful pieces that complement the female form, are elegant without being overdone, and that aren’t often seen on racks and in online stores. He not only gained a slew of celeb fans in 2015, but also sold quite well. By the looks of this collection, there’s much more were those successes came from.
