Oda Style



Just stumbled across a San Francisco design team that creates beautifully feminine, tribal inspired, pieces that are finely detailed with natural embellishments. Their cottons, hemps and wools are organically produced, they use natural fibers like soy and hand dye or tea stain many of their fabrics. Their feathers are collected locally from molting chickens and their buttons are made from bamboo and antlers. These eclectic materials come together to create beautifully ethnic-inspired pieces.

The dress above is made from organic hemp silk charmeuse with details of tea-stained silk organza, habotail and dupione. The ruffled petticoat liner is tea-stained silk. The feather trim are molted feathers, faux fur, Swarovski crystals, abalone and peridot beads.
