Omen Brand Inspiration by Jacqueline Davis Moranti |
I recently discovered this new wickedly, amazing clothing line, Omen Brand. It's a clothing line for men and women alike, "unisexy!" It is founded by designer Keith Terrell Wiggins, who describes the collection as, "Simple garments that can be paired with other items in your wardrobe, yet strong enough to stand alone as a staple." Every piece in the Spring/Summer 2013 collection is a must have, I'm lusting over every piece! The collection is very reminiscent to Alexander Wang's earliest tee shirt collections, with the draping and the way the garments are stitched. The pieces are clearly versatile and allude an avant- garde essence, as does many unisex garments. A man can wear one of the t shirts and on a woman it can appear as a dress, and don't even get me started on the endless array of accessories that can be worn with them!

As soon as I found out that Omen Brand was a locally owned business in Philadelphia, I knew I had to get a peek at the collection first hand! Everything was just as beautiful in person and the designer, Keith is one in a million. A very humble artist who's dedicated to his craft, this is a trait in many great designers! I even got my very own Omen Brand piece, can't wait to show you! Dear readers, what is your first impression of Omen Brand?
Very cool collection. As much as I love color, it's refreshing to see the designer's neutral color palette. I love the idea of unisex pieces!
ReplyDeleteI really like the concept behind this collection and the color palate. I almost wish the clothing wasn't as form fitting so that it would also make the wearer androgynous by not accentuating curves if a woman wore it--that feels like a full realization of the idea. I can't wait to see the piece on you though.
