Editor’s Guide: Wearing David Koma
David Koma is high-impact fashion. The cuts are precise and the embellishments are heavy. Here is how to nail the look.
1. The Crystal Dress
Koma’s crystal minis are heavy with embellishment. They act as jewelry. Skip the necklace and opt for sleek hair and a smoky eye to match the electric energy of the garment.
2. The Cutout
The brand is famous for asymmetric cutouts at the waist or bust. Use fashion tape to secure the edges for total confidence. Pair with a translucent heel to keep the focus on the dress’s architecture.
3. Power Separates
Pair a Koma corset top with wide-leg trousers. The structure of the bodice provides incredible support, often eliminating the need for a bra.

- Bust: Styles with crystal cups or corsetry are fitted to a B/C cup standard. If you have a larger bust, sizing up is essential.
