Chain Reaction

Fantastic timely and mood-dependent necklace by Mark Pawson. It’s a big question under the candy-colored plastic letters. Really depends on the day I suppose… Available HERE.

Lar Lar Pants on Fire

Josefina Lar has some of the hottest pants around. I love this collection. But I’m dreaming of her enorgeous (that’s enormously gorgeous) periwinkle mohair coat or oatmeal sweater on this particularly cold day. The Swedish born London College of fashion and Preen / Ann Sofie Back alumnus’ sihouettes are to die for. Her fantastical knits [...]

Partidge’s Family

Solange Azagury-Partridge‘s rings are my current obsession. Her baubles have have dressed up the V&A, the Louvre and the London Design Museum.

Who is Diane Pernet

I spent a long weekend in the French countryside with this wonderfully veiled woman in 1992, after the death of my friend Clovis Pennington’s brother, Gary Lee. We slept in the cottage of Gary’s lover’s (Franck’s) parents who graciously hosted Diane, his son’s lover’s brother (Clovis) and myself, an American stranger. It was a bizarre [...]
