i sort of forget where is stumbled upon novoa's designs but i was really drawn to their homemade-esque quality. their simple lines, materials, the way they sit or hang on the body, really easy and with a sort of innocence. oh, and all of the natural tones, their color palette is very earthy and raw.
"phillip novoa wanted to capture the soft colors of of white nights, during russia's short summer months for his debut collection."
besides that i really don't know much about the designer or history of his coming to new york only that which i found on line. what are your thoughts on the line? too simple? just perfect? elegant? i could easily see myself lounging around in bare feet or throwing on sensational heels which would contrast the easy going pieces. they have a fabulous flash slide show when you first enter their site and models are shown with great shoes as well! happy friday everyone. it's supposed to be a mixed bag weather wise in my part of the world, so we may head up to boston to the new museum of contemporary art. what are you up to? enjoy!
