A New Collaboration

We recently finished a really fun collaboration with Gilbea of etsy. Gilbea makes the most beautiful silk paintings on luxurious silk and transforms her handpainted pieces into pieces of wearable art! We were very excited recently to collaborate with Gilbea and gasped when her handpainted silk piece arrived through my letterbox. It was such a treat to work with the fabric, it had such a dramatic scheme on it we wanted to create a dress that would firstly allow the fluidity of the fabric to take centre stage because it drapes so beautifully, we also wanted to add a little of our signature embellishments the dress so we decided to create an asymmetrical bias draped dress with a black velvet neck adornment complete with tulle tattered edging and satin ruffled blooms.

Have a nice Thursday everyone.

Exciting News!

Guys, I have had the most amazing whirlwind of a few days! A Few things happened this week which I was really chuffed about. :)

The coolest news though is that Etsy used one of my items recently to feature in their "Etsy Finds" Article that is delivered worldwide into peeps inbox. This was an absolutely fantastical achievement in itself, however when it landed in my inbox was the first time that I got to see it too and I was so thrilled to have been chosen as a style that Grammy Nominated Celebrity British Songstress Imogen Heap would dress in. If there was ever a muse chosen to inspire my aesthetic it would be this lady, she just oozes individuality, character and had a really ecclectic sense of dress. I adore her personal style and indeed her whole aura is quite beautiful. I am truely flattered that Gilbea chose my Venetian Inspired Jacket to rock on Imogen I think she did a really fab job of choosing all the items.

Check out the article here on Gilbeas renowned Fashion and Style Blog and be sure to youtube Imogen Heap to hear her amazing voice, its hauntingly beautiful, she is a genuine gifted spirit!
