The delight of dungarees

Dear Dungers, 

You know they are right, no matter what a dunger has serious vibes. Yes a little retro, yes perhaps a touch 'un-sexy' but seriously seriously cool!!! Get involved, whack in a heel and you are good to go. I know you secretly want a pair.  I know i am a bit scared to wear mine.

Be wooed by JW Anderson

Dear JW Warriors, 

We all know i harp on about JW, a lot. Well in the nicest possible way, tough. Its wonderful and makes me happy inside. See above. 

Sincerely, Thread

Sophie Hulme ADORATION

Dear ALL,

SOPHIE HULME. Please let that name stay fixed in your brain. Her clothes, bags, outerwear, jewellery - so on so forth are quite quite exquisite. Detail is key and a colour palette that will do nothing but charm. Dinosaurs being the theme for AW12 means that frankly i can do nothing but bow to the thrown of this style savvy collection. They appeared on coats, skirts, necklaces and more, not only that there was a rather large gold one looming fabulously over the event. Enough of my chat, do your research. Sophie Hulme is the FUTURE. 

Sincerely, Thread

JW ANDERSON

 

 

Dear JW Warriors, 

Today's show took the designer to the next level of cool, packed to the brim with the elite of the fashion pack, he pulled off pure style. Beautiful shapes, structured yet soft, interesting textures and colour combinations his designs always have a sense of the forward, what's next, what's new. The platform loafers, you couldn't get more sexy (i wish i had been able to capture a shot but they just walk to darn fast and the hat well i mean look at it. Bloody marvellous don't you think? JW you win me over every time. 

Sincerely, Thread

p.s. apologies in my stupidity for filming it the wrong way up, just do a little shifty with your computer and you will be merry.

Suggestion of a shoot

Dear all, 

A couple of images from a shoot i did the other day, using nothing but the delectably Bimba Y Lola AW12 collection. I am now hugely and uncontrollably besotted with the brand. Its chic yet edgy take on everyday luxury makes it my current one stop shop. All early 50's cool with pencil tweed skirts and Peter Pan collared blouses, mohair knits and skinny trouser suits will result in the ULTIMATE wardrobe staples. For more of the shoot click here.

Invest in super style. 

Sincerely, Thread

p.s. Will be posting, there new season look book soon, its just too hot to trot. In the meantime, check out their website www.bimbaylolastore.com and if in London, they have a shop in Westfield. Be warned, you will never want to leave.

Blaze the blazer

Dear blazer wearers,

Are you battling like me to steer away from the delights of the new season? Can we all cut a cool silhouette and wear a blazer at the beach. There is only one thing to do. Try, try and try again!
