YESTERDAY ONCE MORE

This collection was inspired by childhood memories of looking at my Mother in her beautiful dresses, jumpsuits, floaty blouses & skirts, all played with a soundtrack of the Carpenters in the background.  “Yesterday Once More” is one of my all-time favourite songs by the Carpenters, the voice of Karen Carpenter was incredible, and I imagined my Mother wearing our Tasha blouse and Yana dress while this song played in the background.  The collection is at the core a focus on the power of Femininity.   Growing up in Ireland in the 70’s I’m lucky I was raised by an incredibly strong woman, who embraced everything in Life with a smile and hard work, and never shied away from her love of fashion.  Thank you Mum ♥

It was very fitting that my mother came with me to the Old Covent Garden Flower Market in Vauxhall when I was planning the set for our photoshoot.  We left with arm loads of Pampas grass and large coloured vases… and so the set was created around the nostalgic memories of my childhood.

I hope you will love our new styles, the Tasha top & griffin skirt, the Yana dress, Keaton top & Keaton jumpsuit, and of course with the return of our classics.  We have fully embraced rich colours of green, pinks, reds, with a focus on paisley, animal and snake prints. In the collection are new fabrics, printed velvet which is so amazing, the colours pop on this beautiful fabric, and our new non stretch crepe fabric which works beautifully in our Mylene & Tasha blouses, and Marisa dress.

Hope you enjoy the photographs from our shoot for this collection, as always with my amazing team, Style Director Natalia Peters, Hair & Make-up Artist Katie Coward, and Photographer Marie Absolom, and it was a pleasure to work with Model Tamina.
