Fashion is one big adventure
For this series, I’m taking a statement piece from my wardrobe and styling it 3 different ways to create 3 very different but cool outfits. I think we can all agree that this is a very simple premise; so there’s no need for me to go into any more detail. …
Disclaimer: This post is incredibly delayed; we’re talking several months here, but to be honest I had completely forgotten I had filmed and shot this series. So my sincere apologies for putting up a post with items that will be a little hard to find. Now that we have that …
The logo logo trend doesn’t appear to be going anywhere. Just when we thought we might have had enough with all the Fendi logo clothing, the high street have come out with their own interpretation. And the brand who have been the biggest fan of this trend is undoubtedly River …
For the second outfit of the refined cowgirl shoot, I thought the outfit should be more feminine and more girl on the prairie than the first one. While the first one was quite utilitarian with the denim, the second is all about this beautiful floral prairie dress layered over with …
One of the biggest trends that popped up from this autumn/winter cycle in fashion was the cowgirl trend. Some brands just focused on the western boots, others went mad on gingham and some really focused on the capes worn. But it doesn’t matter which aspect of the trend you liked; …
You know what makes animal print look even better? Pairing it with more animal print, lol. But honestly, the philosophy of more is better has always been one I’ve held close to my heart in regards to fashion. I do ordinary and plain for so much of my day, when …
I’ve been meaning to shoot at the famous South Bank skate park for years. It’s one of those places that is so incredibly London, and weird at the same time. Underneath the pre-eminent theatre in the UK, home of the National Theatre Company and the height of upper-class life, sits …
Dear oh dear, oh dear Nasty Gal. You really do love ripping off designer pieces, don’t you? Well at least you can rest a bit easier as it wasn’t just you this time; shoe brand Jeffrey Campbell has gotten in on the act too. Famed a few years ago for …

Hello world,
So I’m sure you’re all well aware of the new fashion coffee table book that’s just hit the shops. I’m not usually one for paying much attention to these types of book, what with them being ridiculously heavy and far too expensive for my liking, but this one’s a real treat.

It’s the new Dior Couture book done in collaboration with Patrick Demarchelier. He in itself is an amazing fashion photographer, but to hear he’s photographed my favourite couture house is a double bonus. These brand new photos highlight the couture pieces from this house’s archives in ways that really bring a freshness to the house of Dior’s long and illustrious career.
So here are some of my favourite images from the book, and in case you’re reading this Mum/boyfriend; this would look really great on my coffee table!

So which one is your favourite? Mine is the image with the aquamarine tulle creation where Galliano based his entire collection on florals. It was my favourite ever couture show and my favourite image now.
Until then,
Franzi
