It's all in the Detail







So often what sets a beautiful garment or outfit apart from the rest is the small details.  Intricate beading, French seams and careful construction are all trademarks of many of the vintage and couture garments and accessories that make their way to us. It is a pleasure to observe the superior workmanship that goes in to these beautiful pieces.

Wardrobe to Covet: Camilla Belle






Camilla Belle is an American actress, who often receives more media attention for her fashionable ensembles than for her film roles. The daughter of a fashion designer, Belle makes excellent fashion choices, favouring flattering dresses but experimenting with colours and prints. She is the face of the Vera Wang 'Princess' fragrance, and some of Belle's favourite designers include Alexander McQueen, Armani, Miu Miu and Jean Paul Gaultier.
