Got an extra $20 to spare? If so, then you may want to invest it in a flattering Norma Kamali for Walmart designer dress (similar to those in her upscale line that sell for several hundred dollars or more) that even the most stylish fashionista would probably be proud to wear.
The Kamali Flair
Almost anyone can look fashionable these days, no matter what their budget, size and age. This is in at least small part thanks to the efforts of well-known designer Norma Kamali, who is going to great lengths to bring high-end style to the masses in a very big way.
Seeing Fashion In New Ways
For the past several decades, Kamali has been crafting unusual, yet practical, clothing pieces that can be worn in different ways. Many people know her best for starting several new trends, including parachute clothing and sleeping bag coats. She has also added her own spin to create fashionable active wear and design flattering swimsuits that many real women want to wear.
Over the years, these and other niches have helped her earn large group of reliable fans. Up until recently, though, most of her pieces were available only to those who could afford the high price tags.
Spanning The High-Low Range
This has all changed in the past year. As the economy has taken a turn for the worse, in keeping with her tradition of being on the forefront of the trends, this forward-thinking designer has made a commitment to empower more women to be able to wear her clothes and enjoy looking and feeling great without breaking the bank. To this end, she has partnered with discount superstar Walmart to create a line of ultra-affordable clothing without sacrificing the quality that typically goes along with her prestigious label.
At a time when many couture designers are reaching for new customers by creating very inexpensive versions of their clothing lines for chain stores like H&M, Kohls and Target, Kamali has created her Walmart collection in a different way. While some designers offers a small array of limited edition items in inexpensive fabrics to make them accessible to a lower price point, Kamali has created a large selection of items available for Walmart shoppers. Rumor has it that she has also tried to keep the fabric, color, cut and finishing similar of these items similar to her own higher-end line. The result is a very affordable collection of casual and work pieces that can fit a wide range of body types and can be mixed and matched and worn in multiple ways.
