Cari Borja

Cari Borja - Fluid and feminine, sexy and sinuous, Cari Borja's clothes are full of movement and whimsy. Made from both natural and synthetic fabrics, cut on the bias and sculpted out of ruffles, Cari's dresses and coats are framed by lettuce-edged stitching and exposed seams. Inspired simultaneously by Madeleine Vionnet's bias cut gowns, Stephen Burrowes' zig-zag hems and her own roller-skating outfits her mother made in the early 80's, Cari molds fabric into garments that transform each person who wears them. Using materials as diverse as fleece, polartec and wool, matte jerseys and satin brocades, Cari textures each fabric by pleating, piping and faux-corseting lines into the structure of the garment. The forms of her designs are created by exponential ruffles, tiered organically, and multiple godets that are inserted into the main foundation of a skirt, gown or jacket. The result is a silhouette that takes shape from, and moves elegantly with each body.
