Juicy Couture, Gonsalves & Hall, Balenciaga, Rock and Republic, Karen Walker and Oki Ni,
at the Truman Brewery on the 13th of April.
The sample sale is from friday the 13th to sunday the 15th starting at 7pm.
I will see you there!

Warning: Next season could go badly wrong!

This autumn we will be hell for leather, Sci-fi in shiny and wetlook, brightly accented in pinks and purples and quilted to the hilt in gold metallics.
From the sounds of things it could all go terribly wrong next season with hoards of the public in leather trousers and giant volumous quilted pink puffa jackets.
Please remember that this is NOT the way to go.
NOONE gets away with leather trousers unless you're going to walk down a catwalk, fight off evil vampires or space robots!
Quilted doesn't mean housing estate and volume doesn't mean huge unflattering dresses that are more blobby than beauty.
Less is more, one trend at a time and if you wore it origionally it's probably best to leave to others!

There are some events in conjunction with the exhibition that sound interesting. My favourite is the two documentaries on the fashion industry on sun 22nd April £15.00.
