Abaete Fall 2008 Ready To Wear
Abaete, in my opinion, wasn’t exactly thrilling for me. The collection consisted of black, grey and white mainly, some colour blocking. The dresses are cute.
Style’s review:
NEW YORK, February 2, 2008- Formenting fashion revolution clearly isn’t the aim of Abaete’s Laura Poretzky. Rather, the designer continues her quiet evolution- this season, adding tailoring and separates to a previously dress-centric oeuvre. Poretzky’s strength is in making ever more understated, chic clothes that are long on commercial appeal, so an inspiration of medival armour thakes shape in a simple steel-gray jersey top tucked into a gray circle skirt, or in the flat pewter paillettes embellishing the waist of an otherwise plain black silk dress. Anything to write home about? Perhaps not. But there is something to be said for ably translating trends into simple, well-priced looks that make an attractive, anonymous addition to a wardrobe. And that something might be, “Put it on my credit card.”

for some reason blogger is acting up and i mite have sent this comment twice but….. I really like the collection, high waisted tends to look good on most people but I love the darker colors mixed with a splash of white. I love this line!!!!
