RIYADH: One might not expect to find fruits and vegetables incorporated into cutting-edge fashion looks, but that’s exactly what KAF by KAF’s Spring/ Summer 24 collection presented at Riyadh Fashion Week. Drawing its inspiration from the oldest farmer’s market in Riyadh, Alrabwah famer’s market, the brand, the work of Saudi designer Kawthar Alhoraish, lit up the runway with its creative, playful, colorful and happy looks.Models walking down the runway injected a world of color into Riyadh Fashion Week’s futuristic setup under the modern skyrises of the King Abdullah Financial District. “All my life I have grown in a colorless environment, so I created mine,” Alhoraish said in a statement. The first look, a long fitted sleeveless mesh dress, lined at the bottom with life-size yellow bananas sculpted in fabric, beckoned an uplifting and quirky series of looks to come. A mix of avant-garde abayas made in the brand’s sustainable and recycled materials came in powerful hues of yellow, black and white coupled with form-fitting mesh dresses. Elsewhere, in an innovative nod, several looks encompassed a material that appeared to be made from woven straw. One look saw a series of curved straw rings stacked on top of each other to make a long sleeveless gown.
