I think Jill and I were at odds on this collection, but I'm already a devoted fan! The colour palette of toffee, caramel creams, lemon and blue hues was really beautiful. Cutting of the collection was outstanding, with well structured, paneled jackets that hugged the model perfectly met with high waisted trousers that in soft fabrics, simply stunning, could be a perfect evening wear alternative to an LBD. Chiffon and silk were draped, deconstructed and manipulated to create dresses of volume, detail and great interest - certainly an eye-catching collection. Shapes were new and innovative, and the asymmetric dress is definitely now a lynch pin to the fashionistas way of dressing. Soft pleats and folds in clever fabric combinations meant that this collection really stood out. There was so much work in each piece that I was floored by the cutting skills displayed here. My favourite pieces would definitely include the high-waisted trousers, which would be drooled over by many a fashionably lady, and the empire-line dresses that would look at home at any glitzy premiere. I'm keeping an eye on this one!
Expert cutting, indeed. Maybe the two of you should get together, Rivkie, and see where the fabric takes you.

Thx Jill& Rivkie,So pleased 2 hear ur feed back..Thank you really..Just one thing 2 request, if Rivkie can change my name on Fashion capital, plz??K xx
The cargo trousers are noticeable. If you go on popular high street, you might agree that jeans are everywhere but look again and maybe you will see that the trousers leg is beginning to be
seen. Sometimes there is flair at cuff but lot of the times the jeans hang like trousers. It is interesting to see skinny jean going out of fashion and the trousers look moving in.
