Heart. This is how designer Karla Spetic titled her latest
collection for fall/winter 2012. And we must admit that there are
loads of beauties in this line that our heart craves for. There are
wild leopard prints and pop art prints inspired by the work of Roy
Lichtenstein, eye-popping red and yellow, but also grey and soft
pastels. Check out these incredibly stylish stunners that will
undoubtedly catch you hook! Well, the awesome and super-cool
creations definitely inspired us!
Unique and oh-so-fab, Spetic's collections feature sharp and clean
cuts, look-at-me colors and an array of innovative prints. Speaking
about the Karla Spetic woman, the Croatian born and Australian
raised designer said in an interview with The Block that, "She
could be anyone, a unique and interesting woman who has an
unrivaled imagination and a one of a kind personality."
Speaking about the design process, Spetic explained that, "Every
season is different. I can’t seem to make rules and work by certain
guidelines. Sometimes I work back to front." For fall 2012, the
designer brings organza skirts, pop art bodices and dresses,
bright-colored and striped pullovers, leopard-printed trousers and
blazers, army-inspired jackets, leisure overalls, leggings,
sculpted tank tops, pleat coats, pocket shirts, pop art heels and
brogues, everything you need in order to stay stylish all season
long.
The color palette includes lighter hues and lovely pastels, but
also bolder shades such as yellow and red. "I think this is a
reflection of how we feel in winter. It’s really cold and the
weather is grey. So adding some colour would literally brighten
things up," Spetic said. "I grew up in the 80’s so there was lots
of colour and shape. I have drawn inspiration from this in the past
but generally, many different things inspire me. I can find
inspiration everywhere," Karla Spetic admitted in an interview with
The Vine.
Moreover, the young designer told The Block that, "As a child I was
always creating and making things, so for me it seemed only natural
to end up in the creative industry. I decided I wanted to make
clothes when I was 11 years old and this was the time that my
mother and I moved to Australia. It was a significant part of my
life where my senses were opened to new cultures, change of
environment and new ideas."
