3.1 Philip Lim Cruise Collection At Al Ostoura


Very so often, I like taking a simple approach to dressing especially on weekend when you just want to feel relaxed and comfy with the company of your good friends. And of course who masters this design tactic better than Philip Lim?!

I went to Al Ostoura’s store at Zahra Complex to check out Philip Lim’s 2008 Cruise Collection. And of course, Mr. Lim never ceases to amaze me. His cruise collection featured cotton tricot cardigans, flaring and ruffled shift dresses, and silk tops with flower applique details. All in spring like colors such as green, pink, blue, white, and khaki's. Here's a sample of what's available in-store now.









Let me tell you though, it helps if you’re as petite as Rachel Bilson as most dresses were on the mini side and it would ruin the look to wear the dresses with leggings.

Im wondering about the prices like anonymous. It would really help when you're talking about stuff available in Kuwait if you would quote the Kuwaiti prices dear. Thanks.

The plae Blue dress with a belt (shown on the first photo) is around KD 145. The dark blue dress with a matching belt (4th photo) was not more than KD 95. I'm not sure about the rest though.

I compared the price of the dark blue dress from Al Ostoura with the one on Net-A-porter.com was amazed to find out that at NAP, the dress is almost KD 40 more expensive.
