Dries Van Noten Spring 2015
Ophelia and A Midsummer Night’s Dream were cited influences, but I also spied the spices of the Grand Bazaar, the threads of Indonesian tapis cloth and Thai silks & gold cloth. Thanks once again, Mr Van Noten. Images from style.com. HF.
Marni Spring 2015
It will come as a surprise to exactly no one that I loved this show. These aren’t flowers; they’re triffids. Images from style.com. HF.

van der Hamm: Resort 2014
Michael van der Hamm, you are my new go-to fantasy personal fashion designer. Multi-pieced floral ikat & tweed shifts and shell coats? Yes x ten. HF.
West (now south) Elm & co.
There is now a stellar range of storage baskets and photo frames in Sydney, care of the Williams Sonoma/Pottery Barn/West Elm migration. From well designed, inexpensive sofas to the perfect jars for jam season, this is going to shakes things up, retail-wise. For smaller items, the prices are only a smidgeon more than the US. And the range is pretty good, considering we’re one fifteenth the size, population wise. Oh, and the staff were both plentiful and super helpful. My only gripe: the store configurations – if only they’d taken over a deco warehouse down Alexandria way! HF.
Inigo can be seen trying to match his neon pram to the grey Westelm sofa, above – good job pikelet!
