The show opened with
traditional Mongolian singing and was followed by acrobatics– a nod to designer
Zolsetseg’s home country. This special touch set the energy before the first
model appeared.
The look: soft and austere.
Blocked eyebrows and matte nude lips were offset by a gold stripe from hairline
to chin, lending a brightness to the skin. Hair was tightly pulled back into
low leather wrapped braided ponytails. The beauty look was a touch nomadic and
a clear homage to the designer’s Mongolian heritage.
The show was very tight and
had very little bulk. In opposition to the high contrast color stories popular
for fall, soft browns and oatmeal hues dominated at Katya Zol. As with any fall
collection, outerwear was front and center. Knit sweaters and dresses were supplemented
by the occasional use of leather and shearling.
