Scandinavian designer Nina Skarra will unveil her Spring/Summer 2013 Collection at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week runway show scheduled for Sept. 8. The designer announced her participation through a press release today.
Known for its simplicity and traditional craftsmanship, Skarra’s designs have often been seen among celebs in the fashion industry as well as in Hollywood. Her NYC launch was attended by elites like Princess Mette-Marit.
Talking about the new collection, Nina Skarra said, “This collection has been inspired by fond memories of my stylish mother, my grandmother and their wardrobes. It incorporates the roaring twenties, symbolizing both my grandmother's fun and rebellious youth, as well as St Tropez in the 1960's, where my mother spent time as a model. The Spring/Summer 2013 collection brings together inspiration not only from their closets, but also from their personalities, sense of style, natural grace and desire for quality.”
Skarra’s new collection is expected to have the Great Gatsby/ San Tropez theme.
Designer Nina Skarra started as a couture designer in 2005, after working as an illustrator, profile designer and Art Director within TV production, film and advertising in London and New York. She launched her first collection in 2008.
