Raw Materials, Worked
The review's praise goes to fabrication: a talent for working with raw materials, including new fabrications that draped the body. Bamboo knits sit beside hand knit raffia and gabardine — natural and constructed fibers in one collection — and the bright color story carries the island theme the show was noted for.

Anvarian's three records trace a quick rise: the romantic Fall 2005 collection of the March 2005 season, reviewed there as a rising talent a season after her debut, and this island collection the following October. The March review's braids and complex trims and this show's raffia and bamboo are the same hand at work — hand-finished natural materials, season over season.
The Record
Noted as a Jamiacan inspired collection, Pegah Anvarian included mixtures of silk visiose, gaberdine, hand knit raffin and bamboo knits. Anvaran's talent of working with raw materials included new fabrications that draped the body, creating a sexy, clingy feeling in bright colors suitable for any island getaway.
