"A Quarter to Nine"
Autumn & Winter 2010/11
A collection of womenswear inspired by 1930's tap star Ruby Keeler and the work of Hollywood choreographer Busby Berkeley.
Simple elegant shapes comprise a collection underpinned by a strong sense of vintage style and an obsessive passion for detail.
The meticulously constructed garments, which include tailored overcoats, cardigans, knitted leggings and caped dresses, incorporate traditional luxurious materials including vintage Italian suiting fabric, Shetland wool, cashmere angora and hand crocheting.
