STRUCTURAL STYLE London-based designer Naza Yousefi began her career in readyto-wear, working for renowned figures such as Hedi Slimane and Steven Klein, before launching her handbag label Yuzefi in 2016. Employing a cross-disciplinary approach, Yousefi took inspiration from the leather bonding techniques and structural methods found in furniture design to create her architectural pieces – using, for example, industrial-style bolts rather than traditional stitching. Featuring vibrant block colours, Save up to 19% by shopping tax free, see page 44
signature oversized gold hardware and minimalist, boxy shapes, Yuzefi bags have proved a huge hit with the street-style set and top retailers worldwide.

Feminine, stylish and enjoying a renaissance, the summer dress is a must-have staple for every woman’s wardrobe. British brands are embracing the trend, as Ginger Rose Clark reports

T
all have their own specific fashion codes, and for women this often means wearing a dress. Then there’s the typically British concept of a garden party, where the dress is, again, almost a prerequisite. With so many events of this ilk scheduled each year, it’s hardly surprising that British women have a penchant for the summer dress. From high street to luxury, British brands are particularly adept at creating perfect dresses for the summer. Eudald Luis Batalle, founder of Perseverance London, explains why. ‘The versatility of dresses means they can be worn at various occasions and can be styled in multiple ways, they can be dressed up and dressed down – they’re a real wardrobe staple.’ Perseverance London’s spring/

he dress is having something of a moment. The past few seasons have seen women ditching their jeans in favour of dresses, with midi or ankle-length styles increasingly prevalent, preferably with ruffles, statement sleeves or a floral print. Recently popularised by brands such as Danish label Ganni and firmly adopted by many British designers, the summer dress has become a must-have wardrobe staple. In terms of social engagements, what British women wear in the warmer months is often determined by etiquette, with dress codes at major summer sporting events a prime example. The Wimbledon tennis championships, Henley Royal Regatta and horse racing at Goodwood or Ascot, for example,

summer 2019 collection, inspired by a Laura Ashley dress found in a vintage store in east London, is a case in point. ‘The collection is full of pieces that, with a change of shoe and a swipe of lipstick, could take you from day to night,’ says Batalle. Kitri is another brand that plays on versatility. It was created in 2017 to address what its founders saw as a frustrating lack of quality, designled, affordable womenswear pieces. Kitri started out online only, a key factor in keeping prices down as this cuts out the middleman, with Instagram playing a crucial role in the brand’s rapid rise in popularity. Similarly, when Han Chong founded Self-Portrait in 2013 he identified a successful formula. ‘There was a massive gap between
high street and luxury. My goal in starting Self-Portrait was to change people’s perspectives on what makes a luxury brand. Why can’t we have both, making great, high-quality design for an honest price point?’ The brand’s simple premise of luxury-style dresses with a reasonable price tag spawned a flurry of copycat brands – always a sure sign of success. The label opened its first standalone boutique last year, opting for the prestigious Mayfair area where it sits alongside some high-end fashion neighbours. Like Kitri, Self-Portrait started out with a strong digital presence. ‘Through Instagram I’ve been able to build an amazing relationship with our customers, getting their feedback on our garments, which

£300. Besides the sophisticated look, providing an excellent customer experience is a vital factor in creating a luxury atmosphere. ‘I wanted the Self-Portrait experience to be truly unique and because the team is still small, we can be very reactive to what the customers want,’ says Chong. ‘If you’ve got an event tomorrow, we can get a garment altered to fit you perfectly and delivered to you in time. The store team is also so knowledgeable about both the brand and the local area. They are able to talk you through a design’s inspiration while setting you up with a table at an amazing restaurant around the corner.’ The success of Self-Portrait, Perseverance London and Kitri lies in each brand’s clearly defined USP. When Amy Powney took on the role of creative director for Mother of

impacts how we design future collections,’ says Chong. ‘Opening the store was so important as it’s a new avenue for me to connect with the customers.’ The store was designed to express the brand’s DNA, with an elegant backdrop of terrazzo flooring, clay walls and marble details. It’s an aesthetic you’d expect to find in a high-end fashion boutique, but you can buy a Self-Portrait dress for around

British fashion brands are on a mission to create the perfect dress style Pearl in 2016, having moved up the ranks from studio assistant, she wanted the label to focus on sustainability. Last September, the brand launched its No Frills diffusion line, which is sustainable, ethical, traceable, and has a low carbon footprint. ‘My biggest goal was to make sustainable fashion that wasn’t horrible,’ the designer explains. Powney need not have feared, as Mother of Pearl’s dresses are, simply put, beautiful. ‘The key to Mother of Pearl’s designs is that they appeal to a variety of females, Above: Mother of Pearl spring/summer 2019
and our different emotions,’ she says. ‘My designs are a real balance of playful and serious – serious being our quality and ethics.’ Dresses can be empowering, ethical and affordable, as well as aesthetically pleasing. British fashion brands are on a mission to create the perfect style and have been instrumental in changing the market – whether it’s breaking down the barrier between high street and luxury or working towards a better, more sustainable future.

24: DRESS FOR SUCCESS 连衣裙的成功之道
相片: JACK JOHNSTONE
夏季 连衣 裙 秀 美而时尚，正焕 发出新的活力，是 每 一位女 士 的衣 橱必 备品。各大 英国品牌 紧跟 这一潮流，Ginger Rose Clark为您报 道 连 衣 裙是 当下 热 门的单 品。在 过去 的 几个季度 里，越 来 越多的女 性 抛 弃了 牛 仔 裤 而选 择了连 衣 裙，及 膝或 及 踝 的 裙长日益 流行，许 多 款 式饰 有 褶 皱 花 边、别 具 特 色 的 袖 子或印 花 图案。 夏季 连 衣 裙不 仅受 到 丹 麦 Ganni等品 牌 的大力 推 崇，也 得到了许 多 英国设 计 师的青 睐，已 经 成 为了不 可或 缺 的 衣 橱必 备 品。 就 社 交层面 而 言，英国女 性在 较 暖和 的月份 穿 什么往 往 是由礼节决 定 的，大 型 夏季 运 动 赛 事 的着 装 规 范 就 是极佳 的例 子。比如 说，温布 尔登网 球公 开 赛 、亨利 皇 家 赛 舟 会 （ Henley Royal Regatta）、古 德 伍 德（Goodwood）赛马 会或 皇 家 赛马 会（ Ascot）都设有 特定 的着 装 要求， 对 女 性而 言这 通常 就 意 味 着 穿一身 连 衣 裙。此外，在 典 型 的英 式 花 园派 对上 连 衣 裙同样几乎 必 不 可少。每 年 都 有许许 多多 类似 的 活 动，所以英国 女 性 对夏季 连 衣 裙 的偏 爱也 就 不足 为 奇了。 从高街 潮 流 到 奢 华 精品，各大英 国品牌 都尤 其 擅长 创 作 完 美 的夏季 连 衣 裙。Perseverance London的创 立 者 Eudald Luis Batalle解 释了此中原 上图：Perseverance London 2019春夏新款
因：“连 衣 裙便于搭 配 其他 衣饰，这 意 味 着 它们 可以穿到 各种 各样 的场 合，还能以多种 方 式 造 型，可以穿 得 隆 重也可以穿 得 随 意— —它们 是真 正 的 衣 橱必 备 品。”Perseverance London 2019年春夏季系列 就 是 一大范例，其创 作灵 感 源于在 东伦 敦一家 古着店里 发 现 的一 条 Laura Ashley连 衣 裙。“系列 里充 满了那 种 只需 换一双 鞋、抹 一点口红 就 能 让 您 从早穿到 晚 的连 衣 裙。” Batalle 说 道。 Kitri是另一家 在 服 饰百搭 性 上 大做 文 章 的品牌。当初创 始 人失 望 地 发 现，市 场上 缺 乏高品质 的、以设 计为主导 的、价 格 适中的女装单 品， 因此于 2017年创 立了这 家品牌。创 立之初，Kitri仅在 线 上销 售，这也 是 压低 价 格 的一 个关 键因素，因为 这 样 一 来 就省去了中间 环 节；与此同

时，Instagram对品牌人气 的迅 速 增 长发 挥了至 关 重要 的作用。 无 独有偶，2013年 Han Chong 创 立 Self- Portrait时，也 察觉了一 道 成 功 的公 式。“ 在高街 和 奢 侈 品 之 间存 在 着 一 道 鸿沟。我创 立 SelfPortrait的初 衷 就 是 改 变 人们 对奢 侈 品牌 之 本质 的看 法。为什么我们 不能以实 在 的价 格 拥 有 高质 量 的设 计品呢？”该品牌主 推 价 格 合 理 的 奢 华 连 衣 裙，这一 简单 的逻辑引得 许 多品牌争相 效仿 — — 通常这 就 是 确 切无 疑 的成 功 迹 象。去 年，该品牌 选 择 在 著名的 梅 菲尔区开设了第一 家独 立精品店，和 许 多奢 华 的 时尚 大 牌 比邻 而居。 和 Kitri一样，Self- Portrait 在 数 字 平台上先声 夺人。“通 过 Instagram，我可以和 我们 的顾客 建 立 起 不 可思议 的关系，获 取他们 对 我们 服 装 的反馈，进而影 响我们 “ 未 来系列 的设 计。”Chong说 道， 对 我而 言开设 门店无 比 重要，因为 它是我 与顾客 建 立联 系的一 条 全 新 通 道。” 该门店 的设 计宗旨在于彰显 品牌

的 DNA，水 磨 石地 板、黏 土 墙壁 和 大 理 石细 节 构建出了优 雅 的环 境。 这 正 是 您期 望在高端 时尚 精品店中 感受 到 的 审美 风 格，但 买一 件 SelfPortrait的连 衣 裙只需 要 约 300英 镑。若 想创 造 奢 华 的享受，不光要 有精 致 的外观，还 要 提 供 无与伦 比 的顾客 体 验。“我 想让 Self- Portrait 成 为 一 种真正 独 特 的体 验，因为 我 们 的团队 规 模仍 然 较小，所以我们 可以很 好地 对顾客 的需 求作出回 “ 如 果您明天要 应。”Chong说 道， 参加活 动，我们 可以为 您量体 裁 衣， 并及 时交付到您 的手中。店铺团队 对品牌 和周边 地 区都了如 指 掌。他 们 既能与您 探 讨某 款 服 饰 的设 计灵 感，亦 能在 附近 顶 好 的餐厅 为 您 预 订座 位。” Self- Portrait、Perseverance London和 Kitri的成 功 得 益于 各 家品牌 鲜 明的独 特 卖点。2016 年，Amy Powney从 最初 的工作 室 助 理 步 步 升 任 至 Mother of Pearl 创 意 总 监，并 致力于 让 品牌 将注 意 力 放 在可 持 续 发 展 上。去 年 9月，该 品牌 推 出了副 线 No Frills系列，其 产品具可 持 续 性、符 合 行业伦 理、 生 产流 程 可追 踪 且碳 足 迹 很 少。“ 我 最大 的目标 就 是 打造 并不 难 看 的可 持 续 时装， ”这位设 计 师解 释 道。Powney无 须 担心，因为如 果 要 用一 个字来形 容 Mother of Pearl的 连 衣 裙，那 就 是 — — 美。“ Mother of Pearl作品的关 键 就 在于，它们 能 吸引各种 各样 的女 性，并 适 应我们 不同的情 绪。”她说 道， “ 我 的设 计真 正平 衡 于 趣 味与严肃之 间 — —严肃 指 的是我们 的品质 和 伦 理 水 准。” 连 衣 裙可以令人气 场 强 大，其制 作过 程 可以符 合 伦 理，其成 品可以 既 价 格 适中，亦赏心 悦目。数 家英 国时尚品牌正 致力于打造完 美 的款 式，这也 对 市 场 的改 变 起 到了重要 的作用 — — 无论 是 打 破 高街 和 奢 侈
