I love how Timur Kim has developed his deconstructed denim idea from last year’s CSM graduate collection. New in at Other Shop (nee B Store but now a whole other concept) is a rather lovely selection of denim-print silks. Shirts, dresses, trousers, the lot. Buy it here…
A clutch of charming and colour-drenched fashion vids for your pleasure. Kalaidoscopic, shimmering patchworks from Leutton Postle Aw13, Mat Maitland’s illustrative, jungle-fest for Kenzo Resort 13 and Saga Sig’s mesmeric, pastel-hued dreamhouse for Fred Butler AW13
Enjoy!
