Leave a commentDesigner crush- Viewing Edeline Lee’s SS 2013 collection
Leave a comment
Edeline Lee is a London-based Canadian who graduated from Central Saint Martins Womenswear and apprenticed in the studios of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano. She then worked as Associate Creative Director for Zac Posen in New York and as Head Designer for Rodnik in London.
I saw Edeline’s first collection in Zurich last year. She was commissioned by my friend, fine jewellery designer Cora Sheibani to design a collection to display her jewellery. The collection was so beautiful and it reminded me a bit of the spirit of the House Of Vionnet. Very feminine shapes, structured with clean modernist lines. What I decided to feature today is her second collection.
Edeline Lee was inspired by “the spirit, strength, and fragile beauty” of the bohemian intelligentsia of the 1930s. Women like Vita Sackville-West, Virginia Woolf, Nancy Cunard, Claude Cahun and the Garman sisters who were artists and writers whilst also being the lovers and inspiration for many of the artists of their time. I have one of her dresses and it makes the body look insanely good, it is SOOO well cut. She is currently stocked at Harvey Nichols and Browns.








Home- In Hom Le Xuan ‘s showroom in Gstaad, Switzerland
Leave a comment
I popped into Hom le Xuan’s showroom in Gstaad today. This Paris based interior designer, furniture and landscape designer of Vietnamese origins creates incredible furniture sculptural pieces and gives a magic touch Franco-Asian touch to interiors. In his own words he looks for ” artisanal symbiosis instead style fusion”.

One for the homies- Men’s LFW- Astrid Andersen
Leave a comment
Astrid Andersen is a sportswear designer. But not just any kind of sportswear. Very, very luxurious sportswear that still looks very street. Knitwear came in cashmere, jersey t-shirts were made from Japanese silk, and along the seams of a dark denim jacket you can find… mink! Snoop, Diddy, Kanye, Chris Brown, Jay Z what ya waiting for?
Aimie Maston jewelry collection
Leave a commentAimie started designing jewellery in 1985 and she designed for some of the most prestigious fashion houses including Givenchy and Karl Lagerfeld. She launched her own line now recently and it is absolutely stunning! My favourite is the City cuff in gold which I am wearing in the picture above. Buy it from http://www.aimiemaston.com/

ByKilian- the line of incredible perfumes by Kilian Hennessy
Leave a commentCity of sin, Good girl gone bad, Forbidden Games. That’s just the names of the perfumes. Hot caramelized plum stuffed with spices (in the City of Sin), the apricot-like top note of the osmanthus flower (in Good Girl Gone Bad), and the skin of an apple drenched in Laos honey (in Forbidden Games)….do I need to say more? I did not think so. Oh wait…and all of this comes in a gold crafted aluminium minaudière with white lacquer and a 24-carat gold snake with Swarovski eyes. 2013 being the year of the Snake you better run and buy it and have an extra clutch in your wardrobe !
The byKiian scent collection by Kilian Hennessy, heir to a long line of Cognac makers Hennessy, is sold at Harvey Nichols, for my Londoners or Saks and Bergdorf’s for my US pals

Designer Poustovit from Kiev, Ukraine

Older 2012 collection above
SS 2013 below
It’s always pleasant to see something new, different and authentic which agreeably surprises you. The designer’s Poustovit SS2013 collection caught my attention at Ukrainian fashion week. Her truly picturesque prints inspired by national symbols-elements of national Ukrainian embroidery – rhombuses, stars, combinations of crosses, was a real discovery. http://poustovit.ua/collections


At the Poustovit atelier in Kiev, prints galore…
