JIBRI High Fashion Plus Line - Jasmine Elder of JIBRI Debuts Her Fall 09' Collection at The Art of Fashion Event in New York
The highly anticipated release of the JIBRI Fall 09' collection is finally here. Designer, Jasmine Elder, will be debuting her Fall 09' collection at The Art of Fashion event that will take place on August 1, 2009 at the Dumbo Lofts in Brooklyn, New York. This event will be hosted by Li'stA, an enclave for the upwardly mobile and socially conscious; promoting change through artistic commonality. The JIBRI collection will be showcased along with two other up and coming designers and a portion of the event's proceeds will be donated to the High 5 Organization, which is a non-profit organization dedicated to making the arts affordable for teens.
A native of Atlanta, Jasmine Elder started creating garments at a very young age. She has lived in both New York and London as a design student. She decided to start the JIBRI line in 2006 and has never looked back. The JIBRI line is dedicated to creating garments for the fashion-conscious curvy woman and is inspired by vintage cinema, music, art, powerful female figures and underground culture. With a keen eye on construction and unique fabrics, Jasmine always thinks about the woman who will wear her garments first, then creates well structured pieces that will flatter that woman's body and express her design inspiration. Rio of Li'stA says, "Jasmine Elder has her fingers on the pulse of style and is currently breathing new life into the art of fashion." Think Grace Jones meets Grace Kelly as the collection boasts diffused metallic colors along with graphic prints. The fabrics are functional, but luxurious and the silhouettes are sensuous, but structured. "I anticipate this will be the best collection JIBRI has put out yet.", says Chastity Garner of Garner Style.
