Despite the tremendous disappointment of arriving at the first festival ‘celebrating vintage culture’ and coming face to face with a Primark billboard, Kid Creole and Gaggle soon put the smile back on my face.

Gaggle curated and modeled in this catwalk show on the Sunday.

IT WAS BLOOMIN’ BRILLIANT!!

3 Oops! outfits made it into the mix. My favourite being this one:

The show also featured an Oops! / Chanel collaboration piece(!) and a beast of a black puffa leotard:

Much as I wanted to, unfortunately I have not had the time to write a piece for Spindle about Vintage At Goodwood and it’s trade show-esque atmosphere but here is a link to an impressively insightful preview piece written by Amelia’s Magazine. Well done Amelia!

The wonderful peeps at irregular choice have blogged about the oops! shoot I did for spindle mag - hoorah!

Hats off to the BFW crew coz last week was BRILLIANT!
Here’s some footage of the first show of the day I did on Saturday:

Thanks to Jez Eaton for making these flippin fantastic frocks out of our lovely Spindle front cover!

The highlights of the couture show for me were Meganne Murrin and Andrew Bannister.

Here’s some pics of my work in the Spindle show on Saturday:

Thanks to our fabulous photographers for documenting what was a very long day!

Yay!

” French ELLE came over to see SS so we did a wall for them and showed them round town! ”

It’s finally here!
After months of hard work from our incredible and creative team of over 100 contributors, Spindle Magazine is HERE!

Showcasing both undiscovered local stars and those from further afield, mixing emerging talent with big names, Spindle is a magazine like no other.

Along with an article I’ve written on fur designer Eliana Dimitrakopoulou and an interview I did with Emma Bell Issue 1 includes this 6 page Oops! shoot.

ROLL ON ISSUE 2!

About a month ago I was over the moon to receive an email from the brilliant Super Market Sarah asking me to submit some pieces to be shown in an exhibition she was doing in Selfridges!

I am a huge fan of Sarah’s website as it brilliantly fuses her graphic design and visual merchandising skills with her love of vintage and designer clothes and objects - clever lady

Her display in Selfridges was split into 3 themes and changed every day so I’m really chuffed that one of my capes made it up on the main wall in her ‘Clash Mash’ week!

Here is Sarah talking about the exhibition on BBC news (my cape makes a small appearance too!)

Love this pic of Beth Jeans Houghton wearing one of my leotards for a shoot by Milo for Spindle mag.
I have also just done this interview for the marvelous job site creative pool.

I LOVE THIS SHOOT! It’s the perfect antidote to my all-black collection!
Massive love and thanks going out to the all new Rebel Magazine which launched today with a whopping 8 page Oops! shoot!
THANKS GUYS XXX

So I was asked to do a small collection to be shown at the closing party of the ‘We love 77′ exhibition at Merchant’s Hall. It was supposed to be a punk collection… but I thought it’d be more punk of me not to stick to the theme!

I banned myself from using colour and pattern as an experiment - I missed it but felt strangely calm all week…!

Here’s some backstage shots of my horror show by the ever so lovely Jean Luc Brouard.
