a summer favourite









Preen's SS 2010 collection was apparently inspired by feminist novelist Virginia Woolf. It supposedly embodies the idea of women defying the expectations of society while appearing to obey the rules on the surface. Anyway.. bullshit aside, I think it's a great collection. With just enough nods to the 40s, 50s and 60sto keep you on your toes, plus unusual pairings of gelati colours and textures, this collection is a step away from Preen's usual masculinity.

Heidi Middleton and Sarah-Jane Clarke have taken their label, and catapulted Sass&Bide into the world spotlight. This video is a teaser for their SS 2012 collection, and by the looks there is a lot of spots, sequins, longer lengths and metallic leathers.. and let's not forget the structured brows! I have a feeling this may be there best yet. Kudos girls!
