What is Exclusive Ready To Wear?

Exclusive Ready-To-Wear (RTW) means using only the best fabric and materials. It means possibly offering only a very limited quantity per style, making each garment an exclusive piece. For women who hate the thought of wearing something that hundreds or thousands of other women are wearing, rejoice because Exclusive RTW is for you!

Wherever did this idea come from? It was inspired by the Slow Food Movement, in which chefs use only high-quality ingredients, despite how little there is available. The result, meals only the quickest of the quickest foodies will be able to enjoy.

Where can you get your hands on Exclusive RTW? At the Octavio Carlin Atelier, of course. Designer, Octavio Carlin, always starts with the best fabric that inspires his creativity. The result, an exclusive piece for the quickest of the quickest fashionistas to enjoy! Choose from one of kind dresses made out of vintage fabric, limited edition silks, and yummy soft jerseys. When you start with the best fabric, you end up with the best garment! Visit us at 309 N. Kings Rd to view our entire collection.

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.
