I love this knitwear by RCA graduate, Xiao Li whom I read about this weekend in I-D Magazine: Knitwear Extraordinaire Xiao Li. From an internet search, there are many more stunning images available, showing work from her graduation collection in 2013, some of which I include here, as well as much editorial on her future prospects.

MoreI looked up the Ivan Grundahl Fall/Winter 2014 Collection, on the Copenhagen Fashion Week site, today – another of my favourite designer brands. And, it’s just fab-u-lous. All the images I’ve used here are to be found in the CFC Ivan Grundahl Runway Images section and there are many more besides. I encourage you to […]
MoreWith New York Fashion Week winding up, it has to be time to look at my favourite collection: The Row A/W 2014 (via Fashionising.com) Yes, there’s lots of other collections that have been pretty and colourful and zany … yada, yada … but, me? Seems I love me some Olsen Twins – who’d have thought […]
MoreAnother horribly busy day today … and boring because it’s been all about admin. However, needing a few minutes escape, I did take some time to look up the Australian artist, Del Kathryn Barton whose work I saw recently in a magazine. On first viewing, I thought she might be an outsider artist – the […]

As a young teen, I remember yearning to look like Marie Helvin and when I saw her – whilst working in Harrods – she was jaw-droopingly stunning. People actually stood aside to watch her pass … so […]
MoreI really hadn’t quite finished with being inspired by the Paris Haute shows … and then I saw these stunning images from Ziad Ghanem on one of my favourite blogs: Cool Chic Style Fashion. Art. Fashion. Fun. Style. All in one electrifying hit. There’s more to see on the Ziad Ghanem site, including a bio and both […]
MoreIf Haute Couture has an everyday function, it must surely be that of inspiring and delighting those of us who love beauty. Whether you’d wear it or can afford it really isn’t the point of the party, is it? Sure, sure, there’s an obvious marketing statement to be made as well as reference to the […]
MoreI’m not a Karl fangirl but gotta say that I love these two looks from Chanel Haute Couture in Paris this week. Head to toe, they punk my Tinkerbell fantasies – are you shaking it down with me on this …? See more from Chanel Haute Couture at Fashionising.
MoreThe above is my favourite of today’s published (yesterday’s actual) Paris Haute Couture – Dior S/S 2014. Of course, no one normal wears Haute Couture, do they? But I’m not the only one who gets a kick from the show, shape and style, I’m sure. Fizz for the aesthetic senses … and I’m a Billy […]
