As promised a follow up on LWF before the splendour fades from my mind. DSCF1557Here are two snippets from a new and a soon to be collection at Cerise UK.

First up I had a great chat with Vivienne Johnston the designer behind Fifi Bijoux. Having come so far and winning so many awards for her commitment to ethical sourcing and production of luxury goods one could expect Vivienne to be on a very high pedestal. Nothing could be further from the truth as she is always one of the most welcoming a positive people that I have ever had the pleasure to work with.

We had a laugh about her "lavender" Scottish complexion while trying to find a suitable spot for this shot under some pretty dreadful lighting. After having fallen fowl of the sun while visiting miners in Mongolia, Vivienne practically covered herself in a shroud on her trip to the mines of Brazil. She giggled and confessed to repeating the mantra, "I'm not from here"  as she slathered on the sun cream. Not that it's a problem, she's naturally radiant.

I almost didn't recognise Beate Kubitz as the last time I saw her she had Gail Trimble hair. Now a punky platinum blonde she made me do a double take. Her beautiful designs were instantly familiar though. I first had the pleasure of experiencing Makepiece at the previous LFW. I looked and lusted but as the line was predominately clothing I left it there. This time however I just had to pick up some of their vibrant  and snuggly knitted accessories. Makepiece's  eco-cred is one to be admired as well. Beate lives in West Yorkshire where she raises her own sheep and goats. She keeps a flock of Shetland sheep for their naturally coloured fleeces - and occasionally brings lambs to the studio for bottle feeding!
