This week I attended the Kim Shui F/W 2023 Collection. The opening look started with Aoki Lee Simmons wearing a PVC Snake print coat following skin-baring mini skirts that stunned down the runway. From the “K” Diamond detailing, to the waist-length hair – her collection provided wardrobe you’d want to dress up or down. The Designer, known for her skin-baring garments, sent her models down a well-choreographed runway with an incredible playlist curated by Crush Sahara. Flirtatious mini-dresses and lace catsuits were some of the eye catching pieces Kim delivered. Meanwhile, the beauty looks complimented each look as well, M.A.C Cosmetic’s Artist, Romero Jennings, created a two-toned lip using the brand’s Locked Kiss Ink 24hr Lipcolour in Gossip and Sardonic, an easy and accessible look to achieve for the F/W 23 season.
