t’s almost Spring, which actually means nothing if you live in England. The sun is currently beaming through my window which would lead me to believe that
Spring is on its way, but yesterday, I was getting battered by horizontal rain. Taking care of your skin when the conditions vary so much is quite a challenge, especially as we get older. Here are some of my favourite tips for protecting your skin all year round.

SPF mixed with the matte foundation can cause a flash back and make your face look a little ashy. To counteract this, pop a little bronzer over the top, to soften the effects of the flash.

A little list below will help you along the way to eating for your skin:
Follow this with a moisturising mask, at least once a week. I am in love with Charlotte Tilbury’s ‘Multi Miracle Glow’. It can be left on the skin as a face mask, or used daily as a cleaner. I love it, even if it is on the pricier side.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) Fresh fruits and vegetables.
Vitamin E (tocopherols, tocotrienols)
Eyes Occasionally, the sun does come out, which is wonderful, but does mean a lot more squinting, which means more wrinkles, not to mention the damage to our actual eyes. Its so important to remember to pop on a pair of sunglasses to prevent any damage from the suns UV rays. Adding an eye cream in the your regime is great. Along with drinking plenty of water, a good eye cream will keep the eye area hydrated and supple. If you have some cash to splash, I recommend Chanel’s ‘Le Lift’ eye cream.

with Smythson. Along this journey, I met other individuals who purchased my more collectable pieces and with this encouragement & little bit of financial backing now behind me, I really believed in my brand. I didn’t overly think about my business model or where i wanted to be in the next year or 5 years, I just ploughed on and worked very hard. KV - What are your favourite materials to work with?
C - 18ct gold and also when I had a
lathe, I really enjoying turning mock ivory. Polished up, it looks so like the real thing when all it is a resin. I use a type of liquid resin for my Red Relished Apples but this is messy and toxic so I avoid it. Especially now i’m pregnant! KV - What message do you want to give through your collections?
C - There is usually a link to heritage
(my use of wax seals are a playful nod
to that), romance and also sentiment as mentioned above. I like to add personal engravings to the pieces, birth stones and small additional details that have meaning to their wearer. I want my items to be forever investments and items that will be passed down through family generations. Heirlooms of the future.
KV - Do you look to anyone in particular for inspiration?
C - Not really but now I have the shop
and I can meet my customers face
to face and as they customise their pieces to suit them, i’ve become more aware of what it is that is important to someone who wants to love and wear something forever. In turn, my customers inspire me.

KV - How does living in London inspire your collections?
C - The back bone of the inspiration
behind my collections have been
largely fuelled by curios (- letters, photographs, objects etc) that I have collected in car boots or most regularly Spitalfields Antique Market however, if i wasn’t based in London I would hunt these out elsewhere and no doubt i’d still be inspired.
KV - What has been the highlight of your career so far?
C - I was most proud when I open my
shop in 2016. All my hard work had
paid off and I was also able to use my savings to set it up. The shop is so much a part of my life now and I can’t imagine being without it.
KV - What is next for you?
C - I have just finished a short brand film
with director, Darren Statman of which
we are just about to launch and then, I’m due to give birth to a wee boy in 2 weeks so he’ll be melting my heart for the foreseeable future but fortunately the shop will still be open as usual.

Inspiration of the Campaign shoot “The theme for the Spring Summer Campaign was visually inspired by the work of Martin Parr, more precisely his critical eye and funny twist on tourists abroad. But I also found inspiration in the colour palette of Wes Anderson and the capturing of social environments of American photographer Slim Aarons. Having set my focus on the French Riviera and its vibrant tones found in the landscapes and scenery I wanted to reflect the fun and joyfulness of the beach as a social scene without forgetting a sense of humour”.

What sources of inspiration do you look for when starting a new collection? I am a very visual person, I observe people, what they wear, how they interact. I would say this is my basis for my source of inspiration. In all my collections colours play a big role too. For me colours are always strongly associated with memories. For this year’s Spring Summer collection my source of inspiration were the colours that surrounded me during my summer holidays spent with friends and family in the South of France. I have a strong sense of connection to that place, my family is from there, I spent summer after summer, surrounded by manifold tones of blue of the sea, the pale greys of the pebbles on the beach, the subtle coral reds of the house fronts in the Old Town, or even the crisp mint green evoking my obsession with mint ice lollies.

HUSHU/TONG is a Shanghai based brand focusing on feminine style
with a twist. Established by Liushu Lei and Yutong Jiang in 2015, SHUSHU/ TONG features modern women who dares to express themselves by wearing unabashedly feminine details — ruffles, bowknots; but deflated of primness with relaxed and cool attitude. Expect unique silhouette and time-honored tailoring techniques developed in- house. SHUSHU/TONG’s collection gained Lane Crawford since their first season, and the stock list currently has grown into worldwide including Dover Street Market, Opening Ceremony, 10 Corso Como, H.Lorenzo, amongst others. And still growing each season.

T
he Spring Summer’18 collection is inspired by the ocean and its
continuous transformation through time. It is an exploration of the interconnectedness of (all things through) water meeting land meeting sky. Evoking the beauty of the past, present and future, this season the focus is on creating an inclusive collection where the concept of age, season, gender and identity have been reconsidered and redefined. The starting point for the collection sees the arrival of round silhouettes and drop shoulders, contrasted with the elegance of column dresses, which gently shape the line.
Our cashmere, linen and silk qualities are amplified by a colour palette defined by tones from the water and the sky reflecting on the sea; like the pale lilac of dawn and the rich warmth of sunset. As the day moves forward, new forms and textures are revealed and the collection embraces lighter materials such as cotton, silks and linen blends. Shifting from oceans to coastlines, silhouettes become more structured with the introduction of A-line tunics and coordinated separates. With the

as a kid - but I was more into painting and drawing and making things out of wood! Fashion wasn’t an obvious route for me to be honest - I grew up in the Lake District with my very
outdoorsy family, and didn’t even really discover my love for clothes until I was well into my teens. I studied art and design foundation after school, and loved textiles and fell into fashion that way - creating 3D pieces from a flat sketch has always been something I loved doing (albeit from wood!), and fashion was an exciting and wearable development of that. KV - What is “Fashion” to you?
Louise - nowadays its so personal which
i think is a great thing and with
the Vetements movement, a humble ikea bag is now seen as “fashion” which is more i guess about branding and the cult item effect. Yes, you have the “Trends” which tend to set the direction for the high street but I think if something is beautiful to you and you love to wear it, that should

that is gaining momentum. Helen - To me, Fashion is what you

KV - What inspired you to start your own clothing line?
Louise - Helen and I have been friends
for a really long time, since meeting
fashion to me meant keeping up with
at university so after building
the latest trends and constantly having
our careers in the industry we
collaborated on a commissioned project together. After this we took the plunge and combined our skills into our own brand ! It was far more “lets give this a go and see what happens” rather than having a grand plan and a set of goals from the off-set but we have found that natural growth has suited us so fart and has allowed the brand to develop and us to learn at a gentle-ish pace! Helen - I have always made bespoke
pieces - mostly bridal - and had always wanted to have my own line. Louise designed a print for a wedding dress I was making, and we decided to go from there! KV - What are your favourite materials to work with?
Louise - I don’t really have
a favourite material as such. The Violet and Wren collections have always been anchored in silks which is course is a beautifully tactile and lustrous cloth to work and give such a wonderful depth of colour to the prints but we woful love to explore more into the silk blends for coming seasons. I would love to be abel to work with some stiffer, structural qualities for a more architectural, RTW approach- this will be in the future plans I think!
59
Helen - My background is mostly
bridal and tailoring - and I also spent a long time working with leather, so it is really hard for me to be specific as each has its own appeal! I love the malleability of leather (and the smell), the softness and drape of silk, and its depth of colour, and the structural, architectural qualities of stiffer tailoring fabrics. I love the way fabrics can be manipulated around the body to create different effects and enhancements. KV - What message do you want to give through your collections?
Both - As a british brand we try and get
across a very Artisan, British feel within the prints and the collection that i think resonates with our customers but other than that it is no more complicated than we just want our customers to feel like they are buying items they love and will keep forever. We love every piece we create and try to bring that feeling to the people that wear our collections.
60
KV - Do you look to anyone in particular for inspiration?
Louise - everything you see tends to act
as an inspiration... As i said, I’m quite
a magpie so am always finding new inspirations or people doing things I love. Generally, I love the romance of designers like No 21, Simona Rocha and Chloe and the palettes and vibe of Miu Miu, Vivetta, Roksanda are always so fresh and inspiring, that modern edge and clever twists that make their collections so beautiful and challenging. There is so much great newness out there but we do generally follow our own path. Our prints are always based upon botanicals so when i start designing, they tend to evolve organically really from a basic concept or theme, often with a historical hinge, maybe a person or an event that we add a modern ,aesthetic to to make our own. Or sometimes , just a really beautiful flower or leaf… KV - What has been the highlight of your career so far?
Both - Starting our own business has
been a big achievement and to be
stocked with such amazing stockists such as Le Bon Marche, Fenwick, Journelle, is quite humbling. We tend not to think on what we’ve achieved to be honest as there is always some new challenge to tackle.
KV - What is next for you?
Both - We would love to continue to
such a great market for us, so to be
