Karen Nicol

Karen Nicol is a good friend of mine's mum.
Their home and her studio is an amazing array of art, embroidery and inspiration.
Without knowing I came across a recent interview she did about her work.
See it here
I LOVE their coat hanger staircase!

Karen has done embroidery for many designers, including Clements Ribeiro, Chloe, John Rochas, Marcus Lupfer.... as well as window displays and her own work.
She recently had an exhibition at the Rebecca Hossack Gallery in London of incredible embroidered animals.




 Karen's husband, Peter Clark, is also an artist and I love his dog collages...

British Vogue December 2010
  
 I Love Shona Heath! Her work with Tim Walker has resulted in some of my favourite editorials ever.
So imagine my delight when I found she had done a 12 page spread in the new British Vogue, with Siri Tollerod modelling!
I do not really have a wide knowledge on set designers, but I always know a Shona Heath editorial as soon as I see it. I love her signature dreamy style.  
I would love to spend just a day in Shona's studio watching her work and come up with beautiful ideas that transport you to another world.

New Eurostar fashion spot!...

it's at times like these that I wish I had Twitter.
After my last trip the Eurostar terminal at St Pancras ended in an Abbey Lee spot imagine my surprise when today I was joined by Jean Pual Gaultier in the Eurostar lounge!
(When I say joined I mean he walked past me without even a first, let alone second glance, but still, made my day more interesting)
