Daytime Sequins, Evening Sparkle

Do you own sequins? I do (now)! Have you ever wondered whether you can wear sequins during the day? and if you could, how? The rules on traditional eveningwear have recently gone out the window and it’s a daytime free-for-all. I’ve spent many a hour creating an “outfit” around sequins. I used to think they [...]

What’s Hotter Than A Man In Uniform?

The answer: a man doing his duty to look good (whether military or not)! But this season, you can have the best of both worlds because military-inspired outerwear is in…actually it never went out. You’ll find the answer with Balmain, Belstaff, Dior Homme and Polo Ralph Lauren. You can either pull out your old leather [...]

Preparing for Paris

Sayonara Simon Spurr

It’s so long to Simon Spurr at Simon Spurr. On March 16th, amid thinly veiled references of longstanding agreements, Simon Spurr and Judd Nydes, co-founder, simply released a statement saying the ‘fashion love affair was over’. Spurr will remain the creative consultant for Tommy Hilfiger. You say, “So what?!” Well for now it means nothing [...]
