IBI Collection

by Leela McMullen and Laura Cooper, posted February 9, 2011

Designer IBI has a flair for creating drama out of simplicity. One would think that the aesthetic options of black on black would be limited, but shades of black has a whole new meaning in this collection. The use of various materials throughout each item varies texture, drop and sway creating pure art. Every fold and crease gives you something new to look at, yet preventing an overwhelming of the senses, the simple dark scale accented tastefully with streaks of gray keeps the designs in balance.
