With a rebel yell… SS 2010

Orsay Hobo in Handwashed Python with Orange Buffalo Trim

It may be cold and great outside but we are now launching our Spring Summer collection on the website and in stores.

Each season we are inspired by different moods, imagery, feelings – this season it was pushing the boundaries between rebellion and tradition.  Sharp colours and bold accents set against neutral backgrounds call to the rebel in each of us – one that may sometimes be simmering underneath a veneer coolness and refinement. We wanted to push the boundary between “Rock n Roller” and polished lady – think Chrissy Hynde or Debbie Harry meets Upper East Side girl.

We used neutral tones of black, white and beige to underscore the spring collection while accents of  fluorescent pink, coral orange and lilac infuse the collection with a daring, modern glamour.

Our best selling LoLA clutch has been updated with a heavy black rhodoid frame studded with black Swarovski crystals for an edgy rock and roll attitude, while the Orsay Hobo is featured in a hand-glazed Calico Python  accented with a  vibrant orange French leather.
