In one remarkable painting by Emily Carr, designer
Tia Cibani found inspiration for the Spring/Summer 2009
Ports 1961 collection.
If you're unfamiliar with the line, Ports 1961 offers apparel and luxury items for the jetset lifestyle.
In this specific collection Tia combined layers of wispy cottons, metallic poplins and airy silk shirtings. Crochet knit techniques and a canvas of smooth woven textures both matte and glossy added character to each piece. The use of metallic copper became a key to this collection's color story.
Hollyscoop.com caught up Tia Cibani backstage right before the big show to get the scoop on how a big production like this comes together. Check out our exclusive video below...
