My fashion influences


Some of the greats including Viviene Westwood, Respect! Though i really wish she would use a little bronzing powder to reduce the ghostly white glare from her fine porcelain coloured skin.
Christopher Kane - WOW WOW WOW WOW
Julian MacDonald - Welsh man living in Paris, what's that about?
John Galliano - One of the best designers ever.
Sonia Rykiel - You rock.
Roger Vivier Shoes (pictured here) - Best known to have created the first stiletto heel - though my poor sore feet won't thank him for it.
Louis Vuitton - regardless of their outrageous prices, quintessentially timeless quality.
Roberto Cavalli - feminine & flowing, his clothes are divine. I only wish i was 5 inches taller.
Alexander McQueen - yummy
Valentino - Aaaahhhhh, kkkooooo, ggaaarrrr
Emilio Pucci - i only wish i had his family history.
Missoni - what this girl can do with a thread is breath taking.

How is it men can design so beautifully for women, but there are far fewer women who can design for men? Donna Karan did it, but i can't want to thank her for the bodysuit.
And above all, drum roll....Karen Millen, who, year after year, has brought quality fashionable creations to aspiring middle class women and bridged the enormous gap between inaccessible catwalk and high street. And i have never been disappointed. Hip, hip, hooray
