Show Review: Tome Spring 2015.

Tome designers Ryan Lobo and Ramon Martin’s creations are steeped in an understated and ultra feminine vibe. It would be remiss of me not to mention the formidable muses for their Spring 2015 collection. Born out of the influence of two Indian artists, Rukmin Devi, a classical dancer and Dayanita Singh, a modern photographer, those sartorially inclined will appreciate the masterful mixture of effervescent fabrics and silhouettes which can undoubtedly appeal to women of different shapes. The emphasis on the female form was kept at the forefront where their signature sense of simplicity was on full display.

 
Though Spring characteristically calls for quintessential bright hues, pastels and floral prints, ankle skimming dresses, on-trend crop tops with high-low skirts all in black made its mark on the catwalk.
Muted gold embroidered jackets, midi skirts and most notably sleek belted trenches all packed a punch of gilded glam.

 
Lobo and Martin paid homage to their muses with looks that incorporated sari-inspired draping. Lavender wrap blouses paired with iridescent culottes and punchy one shoulder dresses lent movement and an appreciated feminine fluidity to the runway. Edgy lace detailing and sheer fabrics with floral motifs offered glimpses of luminous skin and upped the ante on the collection’s sex appeal.
Tome is a brand for stylish women who are confident and unfussy with their sense of style. All in all, this collection certainly succeeded in giving loyal customers exactly what has been a main stay for the brand — polished sophistication.
