Well-crafted Casual

I had the fortune to meet Kat Palmer at the MO Islands Fashion show a little while ago, and besides being a genuinely nice person, she is also a dedicated designer, locking herself away to learn and create her mix and match lines. She has a wide array of styles and is building up her collection with her latest set for her label Immortelle, which I have the pleasure to preview for you.



Gaia is exactly what the name implies. Earthy and womanly. The fabric on the skirt looks like natural fibres, very comfy looking as well as being easy to fit. The length is perfect, it just grazes the knee and looks very classy. The jacket is very well made, flattering the shape and with a drawn bow. The shirt is gorgeous on it's own, but also works very well put together. All three are available in a wide range of colours, the jacket and skirt are ecru, the shirt is a rust colour. You can purchase a fatpack with every colour, or buy to your tastes.






The Hibiscus halter I'm wearing here is a fantastic example of Kat's style. Simple, but can be worn with practically anything for any time of day. It also comes in a few colour choices, and the top comes in the shirt layer, with a jacket layer extension piece which is perfect for me, I'm a big fan of extended tops. The folds on the Hibiscus are also noteworthy, because they're so good. It's balanced so well, a few folds in the right places, and look so realistic. These jeans are available in light, dark, and a darker wash, and look very realistic as well as having a good, low waist. As part of a trade I also scored the Gitana top, which features prim sleeves (that are already perfectly fitted), and a mini corset waist. This feature is unique to me, I've only seen full corsets, and I love that she's messed with it a little and made it something both feminine and a little sexy. My other purchase was the Black and White Bamboo top, sexy casual elegance you can dress up or just pair with jeans, another classic example of Kat's talents at creating styles that become staples in your wardrobe.

Kat is currently working on a new, larger store to fit her future lines. She is a relatively new designer but shows talent in her creativity and design skills to add feminine flair to staple pieces.
