As you know, the 1920s and 1930s have long been a source of inspiration to me, and most of my collections over the last few years have had a thread of Red Prom Dress from this era running through them…but it seems that the last year has seen a pervasion of this style into the general zeitgeist. Good news for me as it it gave me the perfect excuse to Strapless Prom Dresses a collection reflecting this.

The brief for styling, hair and make-up was inter-war Parisian left-bank and Berlin Weimar decadence. I absolutely love what our two hair and make-up artists did…..and of course Marc’s stunning photography has really brought this out.

It was wonderful to get a chance to collaborate with Cocktail Dresses- something I’ve been wanting to do since first seeing her work featured on Love My Dress last year. I love the fact that her gorgeous pieces are created using  found artifacts from that time – such authenticity, and there is something about the way they sparkle, particularly in low light, that just can’t be equalled by modern reproductions….”
