Kimonos that are Sassy as Hell!

August 14, 2017 By Deborah Carr

14 Aug

This month we’ve had lots more photo shoots, revealed SS18 at Scoop London, launched a new line in silk scarves and revamped our website. So only quite busy.

Shoots


It turns out that our silk robes have been seen in all the right places during this summer’s kimono love-in. Vogue Germany featured our kimono robes, tunics and shorts and Glamour Magazine listed the Buttercup robe in the top Kimonos that are Sassy as Hell. Hello! Fashion Monthly’s August edition did a feature on the hottest satin which included our long robe in Royal Paisley and indie magazine Liike included our indigo silk shorts in a beautiful smokey shoot. You can keep up with all our press here

 

 

We were thrilled that Kate Tik took our special edition silk ditsy Lacewing chemise on holiday with her to the beautiful Castle Panigirakis. We wish we could be there too, that view is quite something (as is her breakfast). Take a look on Instagram

Scoop!

Scoop London is a fashion trade show with a difference. It’s held at the Saatchi Gallery, off Kings Road in Chelsea with all the art in situ so there’s a fantastic vibe of being part of the exhibition. The current show is From Selfie to Self Expression. As Mark Brown in The Guardian writes – It is a show that includes painstakingly executed self-portraits by Rembrandt, Van Gogh, and Frida Kahlo, as well as rather more spontaneous selfie portraits by Kim Kardashian, Tom Cruise and a macaque monkey from the Indonesian island of Sulawesi.

It’s the first time we’ve shown at a Womenswear show – we’re usually part of the lingerie crowd, but we thought we’d experiment because the loungewear as day wear trend is still so strong. We’re so glad we went – we were introduced to a whole new section of buyers and customers and were featured by the Scoop magazine and Fashion United so SS18 has got off to a great start!

One of thing things I really love about having a b One of thing things I really love about having a business is the unexpected pleasures of a project, and it's always⭐ always⭐ about people ❤️
We had our print workshop yesterday and not only was it lovely to chat and create and mull over which side of a leaf is better for printing 🥰 but people brought friends and family 🙏 What a pleasure it was to see grandparents (aged 94) parents, grown up daughters and friends messing around with ribbon, potatoes, banana skins and candle sticks to make fabulous patterns together ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
@totishu @frankly_felicia @cleapdrl @sheazeenhoque10 
Loved your stripes, mandalas and blurry jars ❤️

I've been meaning to do a print workshop for custo I've been meaning to do a print workshop for customers, followers subscribers, in fact anyone who loves getting a bit messy and playing with shapes and textures. Did a test drive with friends from #lcf and had a blast! I find it so relaxing making patterns and experimenting with found objects. Unexpected favourites? Have you ever printed with popcorn? 🍿 Nope, me neither but that's what @georginajoan_ brought to the party and @frankly_felicia
was frankly super sophisticated with beautiful rosemary. 💚 Other winners were recycled bubblewrap, the humble potato, mushrooms, corks and forks! 
Definitely doing this again, look out 🧡👀🧡
