A new edgy and contemporary line of clothing for women
NEW YORK, NY - Kareen Borgella will be turning heads left and right on December 2, 2010 with the debut of her Spring 2011 “K.Borgella Collection” presented at the New Art Gallery in Midtown Manhattan. The collection will consist of edgy but contemporary pieces for the modern day fashionista.
The “K.Borgella Collection” represents women who want to make a statement; “I appreciate color, I love great fabrics and texture, but ultimately I just want to look and feel comfortable in what I’m wearing”. Kareen describes her line as “feminine pieces coated with charm and character. Just an instinctive aspiration to create beautiful things for the fashionista”. Styles comprised of everything from evening and cocktail dresses to flowy tops and relaxed pants.
There is no doubt that intricate draping was incorporated in the many of the styles. The selection of fabrics, as well as color and texture were given the utmost consideration.
December 2, 2010 marks the debut of Kareen Borgella’s first collection, a destination well deserved and long overdue. Her well traveled road to success has known many successes and accomplishments. Over the past 8 years Kareen Borgella has been technical designer for fashion brands Armani Exchange, J. Crew, Joyce Leslie, and Marc Ecko's Ecko Red, just to name a few. Kareen's goal was always to design, but learning the technical aspects has contributed to her knowledge of constructing clothes to perfectly fit the body, properly selecting fabrics and implementing different finishes to create beautiful clothing. Her skill set includes everything from designing/development, to dip dye approval, which is effortlessly incorporated within her collection. Dip-dye is a unique and intricate way to design which involves literally dipping and dying the clothing. It results in gradient colors and even patterned effects on fabrics to give them a more elaborate and personalized touch.
The “K.Borgella Collection” debut’s guest list will include New York's top stylist, editors, celebrities, and fashion industry affiliates. Guests will enjoy red carpet access, a runway show, cocktails, V.I.P area. Special gift bags will be available from sponsors Cityslips, We Love colors, Spa H, and Darcy's Botanicals. “Expect an intimate setting that showcases vibrant colors, rich fabrics and innovated creations. The collection embodies my mind and soul,” says Kareen Borgella. The event is by invitation only. Members of the media and press can RSVP at
