This was how fashion designer Dona Lim described her new clothing line this summer season.

The outfits from her brand’s collection were unveiled during the store launch on March 30. It is located on the second floor of SM Aura in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.

Dona described her collection as feminine, flowy and “uninhibited.”

“Strong neutrals against soft pink. Aware of the power of her femininity, my woman is strong and romantic,” the designer said about the colors.

Dona also noted that the silhouettes are “slender, statuesque yet soft and flowy. Like young bamboo flexing against the sun and breeze.”

Moreover, the style of the clothes is “bold, uninhibited and sensual. Inspired by the ’90s style icons who left a lasting mark on fashion.”

Dona then explained that the clothes are sustainable because the fabrics she used were recycled materials.

“Crafted expertly from recycled plastic bottles which consume 70% less energy, 75% less carbon dioxide, and 86% less water than non-recycled fabrics. Blended with cotton to make it breathable,” the description reads in her lookbook.

“Merging layers of dynamic textures of sheer lace, soft faux fur and subtle sequin shine,” it added.

This new collection was also promoted on Dona Lim Studio’s Instagram account.
