MAHY leather handbag brand is releasing a unique new collection. Surplus MAHY leather has been reformed into unique limited edition and one-off bags in the Janis and Nina crossbody, and Ingrid Tote styles.
Small strips of leather are used in patchwork type patterns, and textured tactile crafting is used to honour hand making, the slow movement and skill-based design. “Playing with small pieces of leather was a great way to think differently and more creatively.” Along with the business taking a positive step into reducing waste, Emily says the thing she most enjoyed “was exploring my creativit ..read more

Making a list of times Florence Welch looked fabulous is like shooting fish in a barrel, there is definitely no shortage of stunning outfits to show you.
Indie pop-queen Florence always looks amazing, and her outfits are often reminiscent of her musical influences Stevie Nicks and Kate Bush, as well as frequent collabs with Susie Cave (designer of The Vampires Wife clothing - Susie is the wife of musician Nick Cave).

The 2024 Academy Awards are about to start, and the red carpet is heating up with some fun fashions this year, featuring some of our favourite names like Schiaparelli, Gucci, Versace, Elie Saab and more.
Here is a peek at some of the outfits I thought were totally Oscar-worthy:
Emma Stone rocking the peplum look, which normally I would say is so 2000-and-late and should stay in the past, but this Louis Vuitton is so chic and is the perfect gown for this queen (I'm crossing my fingers for an Oscar win for Emma tonight, I must admit!)
America Ferrara - "America, The Beautif ..read more

Today, news broke of the passing of the one and only Iris Apfel. Interior and fashion designer, businesswoman, model, influencer and fashion rebel. While the world has lost a beautifully unique, talented woman; it's hard to feel too sad about a person who lived an incredible life - till 102.

Which if you haven't already watched, is fantastic, and elevated the designer from famous in New York to world famous. I fell in love. So did the world ..read more

Paris Fashion Week always has some incredible, creative outfits, and this year was possibly even more outstanding than usual. Maison Margiela, Schiaparelli and Robert Wun were our faves, here are some of the highlights.
John Galliano, designing for Maison Margiela takes us back to a Paris of days gone far by, featuring actress Gwendoline Christie as one of his models.
Director Daniel Roseberry, for Schiaparelli, brought to life a collection with a very alien-like quality, somehow both glamourous and a bit intergalactic.
Robert Wun built on the collection he introduced at the previous Paris F ..read more
