When you say “Karimadon,” the first thing that comes to mind is “college graduation.”
Back in the 90s, Karimadon was the go-to place to buy graduation dresses. It came to a point that some graduates would be wearing the same thing. People didn't mind it, though, since there weren't a lot of choices back then.
It's 2023, and Karimadon is still pretty much around. Aside from graduation dresses, they're also very popular among the prom and wedding set. Their long dresses and gowns are both stylish and affordable.
They also dabbled in collaborations. In 2018, they had a capsule collection with designer Rosenthal Tee. She brought her ultra-feminine sensibilities in a collection of gowns and separates. The designs and materials were very unique, and timeless.
Five years after it was launched, saw some of the pieces on the rack of Karimadon in SM Megamall. Since we were looking for something for Ate Bullet to wear for Mom's party, this was a good place to start.
And that good place brought me to this very fun, feminine and frivolous cropped top and pants pair from that collection. A cool outfit in emerald green.
The top had a cold shoulder detail, and the sleeves were gathered to form 2 lantern shapes. It had a contrasting old rose ribbon which added a playful touch.
The pants are also uniquely designed. The side ruffles open up to a high slit, which made it move aesthetically interesting when you move.
When Ate came down from the stairs, a lot of people noticed it, too.
This Karimadon x Rosenthal Tee is definitely a "better-late-than-never" purchase.
