Dosa Collection at Wendy Foster, Montecito

Christina Kim, the Los Angeles based designer of Dosa, typically searches south of the border each season to find inspiration in her fabrics, colors, and overall look. This time, it was her trip to Italy that defined her exceptional Spring 2010 collection.

Christina played off the textures and soft color palette in the iridescent silk habutai pieces she saw in the local italian candy shops. She additionally captured the range in color of the rich Tuscan vegetable gardens, she so treasured, to her recycled silk pieces.

The result of her passion and creativity resonates in this beautiful, fresh, and original collection. Hurry in before the recycled cotton safari jackets, khadi silks, and glorious ruffle skirts are gone!
