Fashion Forward Dubai: Timi Hayek

Viento y tierra, wind and earth, describes this collection in two words. There are no colors, and no prints. Just layers of translucent flowing pleats juxtaposed with rough textured surfaces, all in different shades of off-white, cascading from the body. Taking inspiration from dance and forest nymphs from my previous collection, as well as my travels to Sri Lanka where the school children wear all white uniforms to keep cool in the hot breeze and most are barefoot, Viento y tierra consists mainly of unique one-of pieces, made to enjoy in the sun or in the rain, with dancing feet and a free spirit.
