CHARLI COHEN SS 14 COLLECTION

This evening I popped along to the press preview for the SS 14 collection for Charli Cohen.  This for Charli is her debut commercial collection of women's sportswear although not her first major collection that accolade goes to her graduate collection and my things have moved on!


The collection Is premium women's luxury sportswear and using some of the best fabrics and for this season incorporates vivid yellow with charcoal and touching slightly on nearly black.   Fabrics used is a brushed cotton polyamide which is a technical fabric which give it breathability and although its a SS 14 collection the fabric makes it transitional and perfect for autumn leading into winter due to the fabrics technicality.  Although Charli is womenswear trained she has gone down the road of doing sports luxe we can call it as its clothes she herself wears and we both agreed there's not much out there on the market that's offers its versatility. In the collection there are elements of ready to wear which can be seen in tops and outerwear which gives it the element where they can be worn not just for performance  but for those relaxed days also. 


The collection is quite compact but offers a lot more than its size with vests, bra tops, performance pants, outer and throw over Tees. For the future the future Charli aims to build on the collection incorporating more pieces whilst keep to the brands DNA but adding more outerwear and ready to wear pieces but still with that's sportswear feel ..... There are also plans to venue into the menswear market due to popular demand, this market is wide open and there's really no one out there offering what will be offered. 

My thoughts are for what your getting its a beautiful, well thought of and practical collection which I believe will do well .... As always there are that I'm already after.  The collection is a win win situation for style, performance, comfort and with Charli background with training and nutrition you know your getting a great 


The collection is now available to pre order until September, then will start dropping In-stores to be announced and online ...

I'm sold so stay tuned for more from Charli Cohen from me .....
