Omar Salaam is a detail oriented man, and this season he spared nothing to make a statement. For his Fall 2023 lineup for his label Sukeina, the French designer has covered his collection with oversized zippers, fun furs and gold trimmings.
This season, Salam toyed with the idea of perception. What does the Skaina woman say to the world and how does she frame these statements? I used exposed zippers. The sharp use of tailoring in both suits and outerwear speaks to the clarity of Skayna’s woman: she is straightforward, sophisticated and definitely knows what to wear.
The frequently used large zipper is just one of the main decorations. Fur is used extensively on the tailored sleeves and the hem of the dress.
Skaina is known as one of the fashion industry’s “best kept secrets.” We hope this collection gets everyone talking out loud.
