Just wanted to devote a post to my lovely friends who I have dragged around London Fashion Week with me waiting around in the freezing cold, getting papped and of course the inevitable sore feet after all the excitement.. Rachel Rodrigues is a fashion guru and an artist. We have worked on almost everything togetherContinue reading “My Stylish Friends”

I’ll admit, I have been a die hard fan of MFP since I saw her stackable rings at Wolf & Badger a while back. Her A/W collection is a must have! Surprisingly boasting hues of rose gold, and fuschia pinks recalling flowers in blossom – ‘a symbol of newborn love’ – awwwww. Quoting lyrics fromContinue reading “Maria Francesca Pepe ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’”

In the Portico Room of Somerset House, lives a golden t-rex made of wood. This of course belonged to Sophie Hulme and her A/W collection inspired by childhood dinosaur toys and mens fairisle jumpers, giving for great nostalgia. Every garment had a dino presence, be it from charms, or belt buckles or even more cute –Continue reading “Sophie Hulme AW12/13”

Sunday 19th February Queue’s out of the freemasons hall for Fashion Scouts most popular show and Designer, complete with tantrums at the door between some ego-centrics and the scary bouncers.

Saturday 18th February 2012 IT RAINED. I WASN’T HAPPY.

Last week, we took a trip to Wolf & Badger to celebrate their second birthday party coinciding with new designers they have in store. I remember going to their launch back in 2010 when I was writing for Sketchbook Magazine -after a lot of internet stalking I tracked down a pic of our gang atContinue reading “Wolf & Badger Terrible Twos”

“Victoria Heald’s work aims to communicate an intensity of the painted figure through pose, gesture, expression and look. The changing surfaces, materials and compositions heighten the figurative image in each piece. Her recent filmic series referenced different cachets and seductively rich imagery of cinema from 1940s – 60s. She has used personal contacts as modelsContinue reading “Alter Ego with Victoria Heald”

October 2011 After the glamorous affair at Annoushka, I headed north to Camden town to check out the ‘Poster Roast’ Launch Night. Poster Roast is a collective of creatives inspired by the word ‘rad’, screen printing and music to headbang to. The posters in question were all made and printed by 11 different artists forContinue reading “Poster Roast”
