a word with...Carla Mallari

Since graduating less than a year ago from VCU Qatar, Doha-based fashion designer Carla Mallari has been a very busy girl. Not only does she maintain Qatar's �rst street-style blog, nomad*, but she has also launched her very own label, Cala Mari by Carla Mallari.

Last month she launched Torpedo, a limited edition collection exclusively for Impression Boutique. We met Carla for a fashion rendevous to get the lowdown on her latest collection.

Tell us about your latest collection, «Torpedo».«I've played with contemporary silhouettes, which somewhat re�ects on the shape of a torpedo, and usedpastel colors to put together this mini-collection exclusively for Impression Boutique. »

What is the theme behind the collection?«There is no de�nite theme, basically I wanted to explore unique shapes and incorporate them into the designs.At the end of the design process, I noticed that my pieces looked a lot like torpedos! Hence the name.»

How did you come up with the ingenious idea to create a maxi skirt that also turns into harem pants?«Over the summer I wore lots of maxi skirts. One of my skirts was far too long , so I decided to take a bit o� thecentre back and tuck it into the centre of the waistband in the front. From there I decided to design around thatidea. It is perfect for the girl-on-the--go but still looks stylish and avant garde.»

What trends will you be nailing this Spring/Summer season?«Bold colors and prints! I want to explore mixing and matching prints.»

What kind of woman do you envision wearing Cala Mari?«Complete man repellers - anything a woman loves but men hate! In an ideal world for me women would wearwhatever they wanted and guys would not care about what women wear.»

Finally, can you give us any hints about your next collection?«Well, I don't know, I'm still �guring it out myself! I've got loads of ideas though.» 6
