Swim.

Since my short course in lingerie and swimwear design I took late last year at Central Saint Martins, I have been busy experimenting and practising on my new sewing machine! I'm heading off to Mexico soon so I can't wait to wear my own designs :) As you can see, I've since made a swimsuit, a bikini with a silk printed peplum and knickerbockers (won't be wearing those in Mexico, ha!).

Tim Walker: Story Teller

  

 

This month I visited the Tim Walker Story Teller exhibition at Somerset House in association with Mulberry. I loved the props- my fave was the skeleton who was just mooching in the corridor and the swan boat which I want in my house! The only thing missing were perhaps some of the super-cute costumes from the shoots :( other than that I <3'ed it :)

New Collage

So it's been a little while since I've done a collage dolly, so to get back into the swing of things for 2013 I have also produced a gif as a Brucey bonus :) 

My latest collage features Givenchy 09' shoes and lace skirt, a frilly Chanel Cruise 13 Collection top and bow, a vintage corset and sunglasses & a scrummy milkshake with a cherry on top <3

Happy New Year!

Chanel Little Black Jacket

Last month I took a trip to the Chanel 'The Little Black Jacket' exhibition at the Saatchi gallery which was fantastic. I really enjoyed the exhibit and the beautiful portraits, shot by Karl Lagerfeld, of a wide range of familiar faces. As you can see, I have added my only little twist on to each image above; It was so difficult to decide which were my favourites- but of course Baptiste Giabiconi is one of them as he is pretty gorgeous <3

Swimwear

So I'm currently doing a short course in lingerie and swimwear construction at Central St Martins and thought I would show off my first ever swimsuit I made! I've also been working on a little inspiration sketchbook as I realllly want to launch my own swimwear brand hopefully next year so I'm just collating research/ ideas and brushing up on my garment construction at the moment so it's all early days!
