Debut collection
Winning a legion of fans during her stint on Season 5 of Bravo TV’s Project Runway, African fashion designer Korto Momolu certainly is not one to shy away from jewel-toned brights, prints and feminine silhouettes, along with her cultural accents all contributing to a look of effortless elegance. What I especially love about Korto Momolu’s designs are the fluid, sensual dreamy structures of her maxi dresses and her use of vibrant colour palettes inspired by her Liberian heritage.

Autumn/Winter 2010/11
This collection was slightly more subdued using winter staples of black, gray and cream. But I am appeased with the appearance of the fuchsia and orange that contrast beautifully with the black, providing the perfect pick-me-up for the long winter days and nights ahead.

Look-out for her Spring/Summer 2011 previews, a fresh summery collection in shades of yellows, blues and taupe.
