lookbook

Margaret Howell SS13

Tuesday 19 February, 2013 / Fashion / Comments { 14 }

there are two things that made me happy this morning. first was watching that goats video again. i think i may just start every single morning by having a quick glimpse of it. second was having a look through the Margaret Howell SS13 collection. the lookbook, shot by Koto Balofo, is particularly beautiful – highlighting the weaving process of the Irish linen used throughout the collection. the pieces themselves are of course absolutely gorgeous, the tailored trousers a particular favourite (not to mention those delightful mary janes).

i really love the aesthetic of UK brand Toast. they have a wonderful collection of basics like breton tees, denim, classic leather items and menswear inspired pieces named after Diane Keaton (of course, who else). have a browse around their latest catalogue and also be sure to check out their gorgeous homeware collection.

Momo Wang

Monday 14 January, 2013 / Fashion / Comments { 18 }

Momo Wang is a designer whose collection The Third Hand is made up of 12 upcycled outfits made from second-hand clothing that she found at markets in her hometown of Jinzhou in China. the lookbook was photographed by Shuwei Liu in and around a little rural village in the mountains near her hometown.

“The basic idea is to do what I can to refresh, renew, re-animate precious second-hand materials, and eventually deliver the beauty in them by my realization, and eventually have more and more people doing the same, or at least thinking similarly. A French philosopher once talked about third hand, Jacques Derrida. I like hands.” *
