Proenza Schouler SS13

As you may know, I have a love of pattern, and love the idea of doing my own digital prints. I found Proenza Schouler's collection for next summer very inspiring. I loved the abstract mash up up pattern and textures. View the whole lot on Style.com.

Melting Pot Fashion

Remember these Perler bead things as a child? I remember, me and my sister used to make things but never did the heat set thing, not sure why! Anyhooo, Shanghai based Sabine Ducasse has created these incredible clothing accessories using those very beads.

A new fashion? humans in boxes

Men in boxes? hmmm no thanks. (something to do with a French dating website) Sophia Webster's debut presentation at London Fashion Week is much more like it - models in boxes displaying her fabulous shoes and bags. These images and loads more from Style Bubble's site here.

A favourite of mine, Odette Jewellery from New York. Or should I type Jewelry as the Americans do.
Would love a handful of triangles.

Print Club Blisters The Directors Cut

Went to this last week at the Print Club in Dalston. I must go there soon and do a workshop, in fact I think they have some sort of deal at the moment with their workshops, so I have no excuse really.

Anyway, they had this really nice open night and exhibition which was on in the MC Motors building next door, also a prop hire place hence some of the cool bits of furniture and signs lying around. The posters were from local artists/illustrators/graphic designers who use the studios and the theme was film or movies or whatever you like to call them.

The posters were all available to buy, it was a difficult choice but we settled on this one by Laurie Hastings and the film was Virgin Suicides. It was a toss up between this one and the Princess Mononoke one by Joe Wilson.

of course I had to check out Lauries other work, see below. Check out her portfolio here.
