Henrietta Ludgate- Scottish sustainable fashion

With her entire collection produced locally, Henrietta has received the support of Scottish craftsmanship.  Her collection is crafted from the finest British textiles, in an artisanal approach to production, the result of which is an impeccable finish, and clothes that outlive trends and last a lifetime.A supporter of slow fashion, she draws  inspiration from Elsa Schiaparelli, and her surrealist imagery,  and uses sculptural necklines and collars, standing in sharp contrast to the slender tailored sheaths they crown.

Vodoo Jewels






Livia Lazzari has  a true creative passion for jewellery: this has led to her experiments and subsequently the creation of seductive faux bijoux with tough, wild and rebellious characteristics. She lives between Rome, London and Paris in a continuous quest for new material and new inspiration. Her collections are a blend of tribal atmospheres, pirate tales, a fascination for shamanic rituals and a Gothic mood.

Each one of Federica Moretti's hats is unique: every small detail is handmade, unrepeatable, irreplaceable. She has discovered the glamour and the taste of the old days, brought to the present thanks to the classic shake combined to unusual shapes, materials and colours.  I love these hats and obviously the pics...so classy and simple at the same time!
