Freemantle Hat
Oh the hat! I am a fierce personal campaigner for the hat, a much neglected item in contemporary everyday dress. I am frequently distracted by Vogue’s vintage hat patterns when looking to make a new dress. And then there was the time I walked past the wonderful Isabella Blow in the foyer of Claridges, gloriously bedecked in a Philip Treacy hat and Alexander McQueen dress – stunning. Although I sadly often drag a trilby over my head, I really should be doing the school run in one of Sahar Freemantle’s designs.

Galliano Jan 08

My love for the work of John Galliano knows no bounds and at the news that Dior has just had its January 08 couture show, I am compelled to post a glimpse, described by Jezebel as ‘Twiggy goes to the opera on acid’. Not so little (price tag) but absolutely beautiful (almost definitively so). More images here.
