Pictures of the cosmos, a short-lived obsession with Susan Miller’s Astrology Zone and a previously owned tie-dye t-shirt. Seeing it written down, I am only a dream catcher away from wearing unicorns on my chest. But like a deviant hippy, whilst I shudder at the thought of beads and anklets I could go back to stars as often as I return to stripes. (sidenote: after seeing the autumn/winter Saint James designs – they have a pom pom! – they ain’t gonna be leaving any time soon either)
In fact, you’d be right to believe we’re suffering USA fever (albeit subconsciously) in store as the stars and stripes are out and proud, and it would seem, a micro-trend for AW11. Just check out the Dolce and Gabbana show. Mmmm.
Here’s a rundown of our star spangled assets!
Ease jewellery never fails to impress with it’s statement quality and great detail. These almost embossed star stamp pieces are no exception. We also have some great Karen Walker Jewellery in store too – stars, skulls and her signature runaway girl are all on show too.
Always ahead of the curve, Cybele’s drapery and pattern-cutting quite simply flatters so many figures. Whether souped up with heels and major jewellery, or worn with a leather jacket and soft wools their mileage makes them worth the investment.
And because the world of homewares and stationery and fashion is never far behind, James Brown’s latest collection includes his Way Out print surrounded by blissed-out psychedelic stars.
