With another New Year Eve passed I'm already thinking onto the next, I found this brand recently and too late to get one of her amazing dresses, next year though I think I'll be planning the party around the dress!!
The very beautiful
brand, Caroline Z, was founded in 2015 by Caroline Elenowitz. Using luxury
textiles and couture techniques, Caroline Z. creates cocktail dresses and
evening gowns to fit any client.
Why did you decide to get into fashion?
My path into fashion was an unexpected one, even for me. When I was actually an
English major in college and when I graduated, I started working in digital PR
(not for fashion). Somehow, during that time I just started doing more and more
research on fashion and design and all of my previous interest in art and
design suddenly fell into place and I knew I wanted to really give fashion a
go. It wasn't until I was at FIT studying fashion design that I let myself
totally fall in love with it-- the more I learned about fashion the more
excited about it I became! I still try to learn more about fashion every day.
What is your latest collection about?
My latest collection was inspired by a children's novel from the early sixties
called The Wolves of Willoughby Chase because of its spooky,
fairytale atmosphere. There's also a touch of 'Little Red Riding Hood'
and 'Snow White' in there and really any fantasy in which the woods
are a place of mystery, trepidation and discovery.
What inspires you?
I'm inspired by art and by literature, mostly, but really anything that has a
strong sense of atmosphere and narrative. I love how fashion can give a sense
of an entire world just by evoking the sort of place a piece would be worn or
the kind of person who would wear it.
Which dress out of your latest collection would
you wear for a New Year's Eve party?
Such a hard choice! I would probably go with the Bonnie Dress because tulle skirts are always fun for dancing.
Five
items you can't live without?
