He presented a collection that showed a variation on dresses consisting of jersey, hip hugging skirts with horizontal striped tops . . . a play on the athletic influenced trend for spring. Special touches with spaghetti straps, baby doll sleeves styled with black pumps and a 20s flapper hairdo were nice. The clothes were styled with statement rings and blingy bangled bracelets. Octavio’s gowns in this collection were fit for red carpet, consisting of fabrics including silk georgette. The final piece was a black slinky gown reminiscent of “old Hollywood.” Carlin’s was a collection of demure elegance and subtle class.
