For spring, Palo Alto’s Camilla Olson continues her polished, ladylike approach to contemporary women’s apparel with a collection of sophisticated pieces like a tucked crepe jacket and a sleeveless sheathe dress alongside ageless items such as a semi-sheer tee and a woven vest that could be prim or delightfully edgy, depending on the wearer and styling.
Olson will debut her latest on Saturday during a sold-out event at Four Seasons Palo Alto along with accessories by Gleim the Jeweler. You can shop the collection online or scope the line and Olson’s diaphanous silk scarves in person at local shops such as Carrots, Atelier, Circle & Square, Blu in Palo Alto and Mill Valley’s Carolina.
