Martin Margiela

Margiela is known for his use of unconventional materials, here are a few of my favourite pieces...

Margiela deconstruction and innovative designs create new items from old. Perfect in this current economy. 

This is my favourite piece. A beautiful halter-neck bodice constructed from old gloves made to 'fit like a glove'

Mask Bolero by Maison Martin Margiela, made of latex hair masks.

Each beautiful eye catching piece creates an added note of curiosity; what were the materials in their past lives?

Gemma Slack

I worked for Gemma Slack over the summer and I found her work beautiful and unique. Her unquestionable talent is clearly reflected in this collection. 

The beautiful leathers create a dark edgy look which is lifted with intricate digital prints. 

Each leather rose was hand made so each one is unique and made with care and attention. 

Intricate digital prints feature entwined naked forms with a subtle colour pallet.

Gemma's clothes are stocked in Machine A in London, Debut in New York, Blxxkk in Tokyo and CANDY in Tokyo.Styling Kate RuthPhotography Kristin Vicari Make-up Jamiee Thomas @FrankModel Kate Howat @Elite 

I was lucky enough to be given a Gemma Slack top from the designer herself, when completing my work experience. I wear it when ever possible showing off the beautiful print. I am so proud to have been able to work with such a talented designer. www.gemmaslack.com
