Madame Butterfly: Julien Macdonald LFW

8842971497?profile=originalIt just so happens that I saw Madame Butterfly at the Opera on Saturday night and fell in love with the fragile femininity of the Orient. So it seems oh so appropriate that Julien Macdonald showed a veritable feast from the east for London Fashion Week. Shimmering flying fish, dragon wings and serpents embroiled in delicate embroidery and gilded aspiration.

That's So New York - As Elizabeth Lau begins gearing herself up in preparation for the showing of her Spring/Summer 2012 look book video tomorrow (18/09/2011) in London Fashion Week's very own cinema, it seems she got a little too excited and was kind enough to share a premiere of the video via her Facebook page this morning. I can confidentially say that this is certainly yet another promised success for Elizabeth and might have just ... (CONTINUE READING)

That's So New YorkThe majority of you may recall my post which introduced a handful of my favorite products from London, United Kingdom-based Eel Skin bag designer, Heidi Mottram, titled Heidi Mottram: Part One of Two a week or so ago; yes, you may have guessed that this is the second part of that same post, yet instead I thought that I would venture a little more in depth in regards to Heidi's background, which I have to admit triggered various feelings of surprise after a first read. I mean

'Two Planets' by Maria Lau

That's So New YorkSince my Ax+Apple post around two weeks ago, my admiration for jewelry has heightened; I mean, the search for admirable jewelry designers has even managed to snatch itself a place on my "to do" list. Although I usually tend to hunt for the international among the local, recently I've come across a designer who is both local and international, meaning that the her London location would be considered local (seeming that London central is around forty/fifty minutes from me) yet

Heidi Mottram: Part One of Two

That's So New YorkI'm not usually one for rather basic "I like this bag; that's all" type posts, as I'm sure the majority of you know I can talk for England and frequently tend to ramble on for two or three paragraphs as I introduce a label, the said labels background and go onto introduce an entire collection, followed by six or seven reasonably large images of that particular collection, yet recently I've began admiring the scrapbook-type format which I have seen in use on a handful of addi

How about Red?

That's So New York- Usually it's a little unusual to find a label which fits both the unique/alternative category, as well as the title of a mainstream and established designer, simply because it is not unusual for there to be a rather large amount of domino effect-type happenings when designing, meaning that a designer will create something which is in-fact originally 'unique' yet then other designers will go ahead and either replicate the same style of design, or create a piece similar yet wit
