Eugenie – by Liz Wilson
An eclectic mix that seems to be inspired by geometry, androgynous forms, as well as delicate prints and dreamy pastel/neutral pallets, that bring to mind Stella McCartney, Balmain and Céline. These were my first thoughts when I came across Eugénie, the New Zealand brand yet to be released by Liz Wilson. Liz Wilson was design assistant to Karen […]
Valentino @ Somerset House
Valentino Garavani‘s “Master of Couture” exhibition at Somerset House is one of the most -if not the most- spectacular exhibition I have visited the three years I’ve been living in London. The amazing designs, the exquisite craftsmanship, all revealed through the array of evening gowns, cocktail dresses, skirts and coats, marking Valentino’s genius as a couturier. The 137 sets […]

Illustrations by Dean McDowell
Violence, guns, war, blood and bruises are things everyone, or at least most of us, wishes to avoid. For some people these things can be inspirational, one of them being Dean McDowell.
