I just came back from a trip to Tusting leather goods factory in the heart of the English countryside.
Tusting is a fifth generation firm who have been tanning, grading and trading the world’s finest leathers for over 130 years. I had the pleasure today to meet some of their talented team of Craftsmen and go through the whole process of production of their flawless leather goods. It’s a shame that my photo journey can’t be combined with the distinctive leather smell.

Here in London we haven’t seen much sun in a while, but this afternoon a visit to MAWI headquarters was enough to brighten up my day! London based luxury jewellery brand MAWI is known for mixing opposing themes and with over 4,000 designs has become an influential current in the realm of statement accessories. Inspiration is derived from Mawi’s affinity for collecting antique trinkets and baubles, a passion that mingles with a bold forward-thinking vision.
Mawi Keivom, Creative Director, mentioned that she is now working on clutch bags and two partnerships to launch during London Fashion Week in September. She also talked about the partnership with world’s largest teen site for online dress up games Stardoll.com . The platform allows users to create their own ‘MeDoll’ to dress and style from a selection of virtual stores. MAWI virtual boutique is situated within the Starplazza shopping complex and allows users to try on, and buy with the community’s virtual currency. Come on, you should give it a go!

It has been a while… blame the workload! But no regrets, no complains. I took two days off last week and joined some friends for a city trip to Antwerp. A city with a rising fashion status, due to the Royal Academy Antwerp one of the most important fashion academies in Europe.
Take a look at the coarse cotton skirts. This is actually the first design that every freshman student has to make at the Royal Academy Antwerp - Fashion Design course.
The design phase takes about 6 weeks and the final piece has to be related to the student’s concept/vision of fashion. Skirt always has to be in relation to the body and movement.
According to RAA a design is good when a student takes these principles into account and knows how to translate them into the design.
I just find it fascinating!
Only Jennifer Palmer Inglis can turn my whole day around. (feat. Six Lee,Kay Kwok, Maison Pristine and Marios ‘Alexander’ Antoniou and Ross Williams.
Well, we no longer hear the music, we no longer have the spotlights here in London, but memories and highlights from the best of London Fashion Week were captured with my lenses and become great expectations for what’s to come next Autumn Winter 2012. It has already been a month since Corrie Nielsen, Inbar Spector, Bora Aksu… all shined on the catwalk and promised leading British Fashion for this season. Now what remains are just invitations and my last few bottles of my LFW sponsor Saint Brewing Co.
Thank you all for following. It has been a pleasure to have you on board.
