Kobi Halperin FW25 at New York Fashion Week: Runway
What strikes us the most in Halperin’s FW25 collection is the overall muted color palette, a sharp contrast to the energy and colors associated with the Maha Kumbh Mela. With that said, Halperin takes inspiration and elements he witnessed during his experience — traditional garments with subtle modern touches, hints of tailoring, flower garlands and sacred beads — and thoughtfully incorporates them to add sophisticated layers of depth, texture and movement, despite predominantly monochromatic looks.
We discover a fusion of meticulous tailoring and construction with contrasting layers of hard and soft fabrics. Halperin also adds layers of softness and femininity from gentle draping, floral prints and accessories, fringe trimmings, beading, and lace, to elaborate appliques. The collection is simply divine and worth celebrating!
