When Butterfly Illustrations Become Wearable Works of Art


The great thing about Octavio Carlin's designs is that it is more than just clothing. His work blends his passion and knowledge for Art and fashion. These dresses are the perfect examples. The butterfly print looks like delicate watercolor impressions atop of luxurious silk fabrics. Check out the back detail on the first dress. What looks to be a simple silhouette is elevated with a subtle back detail that will catch anyone's attention. As for the 2nd dress, we truly adore the integration of stripes. And the midi length paired with the boxy silhouette is reminiscent of 1920's fashion, an era that Octavio is fond of.
