Osklen, by Oskar Metsavaht opened the 2008/09 spring-summer season at the Official Calendar for Brazilian Fashion - São Paulo Fashion Week.
The inspiration is not known for sure (since it came written in Japanese in the release), but everything indicates it is guided by Oriental, especially Japanese influences.
In many of the looks it is easy to make an association with samurai clothes, especially the ample pants. Actually, they predominate on Osklen's catwalk in various models.
Short dresses and overalls are also ample and with volume. For him, shorts, tank tops and maxi pants.
The brand opted for light fabrics like cotton, linen, silk straw, silk organza, resined tricot and sustainable social-environmental fabrics like ostrich, alligator and fish leather and canvas and plastic.
Osklen's color chart has white, off white, silver, gray, greens, gold, shades, turquoise, red, old rose and black.
