PAPER MOON

Friday, 15 November 2013


It is time to finally release my Winter 2013 collection. So here you go! Take a look at the whole collection here.

Paper Moon is the title and it is all really themed around the night sky, I just love all those shades of navy and indigo. There are a few variations on old favourites in there: the Midnight Sky dress is a take on my Foxglove dress and the Moonset dress is the same but different as the Poppy dress - both from my Quite Contrary collection last year. There are some new shapes thrown in too and I'm rather chuffed with the smocky shape of the Dimpsy dress.

I only have a limited amount of pieces made up and a little bit of fabric left to make up a few custom orders, so if you see anything that catches your eye don't dilly dally!

PS: 'Dimpsy' is an old Devonian word for dusk. That lovely time of day when the sky is both dim and dark but also an unbelievable bright blue, it makes my eyes go all odd, I like it.

Studio Sunday: AW13

A little snippet of the next collection I'm working on, autumn/winter 2013. These are some very early sketches and ideas. I've had the ideas brewing for this collection for at least a year, so it's really great to finally start putting pen to paper/scissor to fabric. I've started playing around with fabric too. I'm in love with this very soft airplane cotton. To check out more of the inspiration look here.

It seems a little mad but I'm currently working on three collections. Also, trying to market Only A Sunny Smile and keep on track of orders.

Hope everyone's had a relaxing weekend, we're still waiting for the sun here. I thought he had his hat on last weekend but now it is nothing but grey skies. Forecast for sunny intervals tomorrow though, hurray!
