Check out the Fashion Article about NAVEN in the ifashiontimes! ______________________________________________________ When twin sisters Kymberley and Alexis McClay introduced their women’s line, Naven, in L.A. in 2007 no one had any idea how quickly the duo’s creations would take off. Melding sleek silhouettes with candy-colored hues, the fun styles scream Cali chic. Maybe that’s why Kim Kardashian, Olivia Munn and Jennifer Love Hewitt can’t get enough of the playful styles. Vibrant Hues Unlike NYC, Malibu style is defined by a sense of whimsy. Naven’s perfected that sensibility, in large part because of the brand’s vibrant color palette. Michelle Trachtenberg, Christina Milianand Emmy Rossum all love the playful styles. They also appreciate the fact that they can dress up a simple black or white tee with a bold skirt. So do we! Flattering Fits Let’s be honest, it doesn’t matter how beautiful something looks on the hanger. If it doesn’t fit well you won’t be wearing it much. The beauty of Naven’s silhouettes is they’re straight but they fall away from the body so they don’t cling. The result? A sexy slimming effect. Kristin Cavallari loved the sultry minis so much that she bought dresses in three colors! Cute Cutouts Whether slashed at the shoulder or torso, dresses with cutouts have been huge the last few years. Naven’s cut-at-the-side versions are sexy without being too revealing. Teen queen Halston Sage looked adorable in Naven at the Nylon Young Hollywood Party in May. Smart trick: She toned down the cutouts with a neutral clutch and YSL pumps. Naven’s styles make us want to push our LBDs to the back of the closet. ( x )
