Its no secret now that Im a huge fan of Vivienne Westwood and Alexandra McQueen, quintessentially British Design at its most eccentric. So when we were asked to design a piece that had an Anglomania vibe with an Equestrian theme for a special fashion expo in Barcelona rocking on one of Irelands edgiest hair groups Zeba we just jumped at the chance. You can see some of the styles that were also used for the Social and Personal Shoot below but one piece missed the editorial but made the show. I wanted to share the inspiration for this piece with you and some studio shots of the completed piece, hopefully getting it onto a model to show you guys at another time.
The idea was to take the British Red Coat and create a coat that was extremely feminine, with sexy tailoring and most importantly create a piece that could be rocked over a pair of simple black leggings and kickin shoes.
Its a little eccentric for most but I think this piece could really work given the right accessories. :)

We just finished an ensemble for out top etsy client Steff recently and Im chuffed with the results. I wanted to create something in our typical tatter couture style with a pinch of punk thrown in and all mixed up with a flavour of anglo-mania in there too. I get a Vivienne Westwood or McQueen vibe of this outfit and this is one of those pieces that I wish I could just sneak into my own wardrobe for keeps. (I love my layered skirts you see!)
I'm happy to know its goin to the best home!
