I have a whole post prepared about my new brand which i will post next week when the man, frank and I have had time for some piccies.
In the meantime, on Tuesday on my way to Saville Row to see the most amazing fabrics, Holland and Sherry (but that is another whole new post), i bumped into the wonderful Dvora at Fashionistable who shoots for vogue, street chic amongst others and always gets my heart beating faster come fashion weeks, not to mention her blog posts.
Dvora has taken my pic before for vogue, during my blogging hiatus so i thought i would share both pics with you, wish you a very good weekend, its nearly here, and some warmer weather to those of us suffering freezing temps in the northern hemisphere xxx
I have to say i love this shot - thank you Dvora - for a better looky - you can see all the details really clearly - here's the link vogue.co.uk
and again, for the above shot the link is, vogue.co.uk, october 12
The outfits are both designed by me, and the first is very typical of what i am working at the moment - a lot of checks, british heritage fabrics, feminine with strong traditional tailoring influences.
In both shots the shoes are Miu Miu, and the bags are respectively Miu Miu and Chanel, the hat is Borsolino and the shawl is MaxMara xx
No comments yet, so let me be number one!!! Love the photo's Dvora took. Have seen the second one before. Think both outfits are great and very stylish, suit you so well. Think that was the super eats and drink place at the back of the Royal Academy. Look forward to seeing next week's blog. It snowed in April whilst in Maternity ward with you as a baby!!! Luv, M xx
ReplyDeleteThere you go and there was me thinking it was global warming! xx
DeleteI love your designs...especially the textures of the fabrics.
ReplyDeleteDo tell us more!
Oh hostess it is all in the fabric - i think that is where i start with my designs - i love texture and colour but not particularly vibrant in fact it takes a lot for me to love a vibrant print - the one in my last post pre blogging break - is the only one i have ever really gone for - but give me an old fashioned, dogtooth, check or a boucle - and lace - i have so much lace to show you for the summer with eyelet fabrics too - anyway i get carried away - thanks so much for commenting xx
DeleteStrangely F&F we have the same hair colour and cut! Do you get yours done in London too? I'm looking for a new good salon.
ReplyDeleteHi Curator - the elusive - fab hairdresser - my hairdresser and he is really fab is Dan - he owns a salon in Reigate in Surrey called Dare - i have been with him for about 12/13 years - he is really really good xx
DeleteClaire & Curator - well then I am loving both of your mops, that's a glorious colour. How are you two achieving that artful tousle?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read more about your ideas, let me know when you're posting it and I'll put up a link to it.
my artful tousle - curlers heated onto slightly damp hair - leave in for a good couple of hours - brush as you take out on the end only - sleep on it - only brush ends - sometimes - fabilish - sometimes not so! hair huh!
Deletethank you so much Tabitha sure will - most kind xxx

DeleteExcellent outfits and I love your shoes too!
ReplyDeleteYou and me both - so loving these miu miu i can walk in you shoes with enough height to give you a little lift! have a good weekend xx
DeleteOh my! These look great. Everything I like: great use of color, texture, tailoring, and very stylishly accessored. Your line is gonna be a big hit. Please get it into Chicago asap.
ReplyDeleteWhat is that fabric called on the bottom outfit?
That would be very good - UK first huh? thanks so much - the fabric at the bottom is boucle xx
DeleteClaire, I spotted your picture on Vogue UK and I was so happy (the Street Chic section is one of my favourite and a daily reading...)! You and Dvora are a great duo! Both ensemble are really exquisite and you are a great ambassador for your brand and style! Caterina
ReplyDeleteI know it is one of my faves too! Always checking it - Dvora does such a good job - thanks so much caterina xxx
