DIAMOND DIARY: Tartan, Taffeta & Tension

Dear Diamond Diary…..

Last week was a colourful one! 💚💙💜🧡💛

📱Social Reactions

A second hand haul from Paper Dress Vintage got loads of attention this week! A corset & the double leopard look was deffo approved but the taffeta dress? Something about nostalgic princess energy hoicked up with a load of hefty hardware just makes sense to people. This combo may become a habit 😂

Quick trip north to check in on a couple of interior projects. Added benefit? Glamping overnight in a tiny cabin with my chihuahuas. Still counting sheep. 🐑🐑🐑 

📸 Studio Styling

Back in London, I’ve been shooting some new looks to inspire my sartorially savvy followers:

• Two-tone tartan

• A unique, sculptural thrifted dress

• A clingy, blingy, mini that deserves its own spotlight

🎯 Inspiration

• Street posters + East London graffiti = a constant source of ideas

• Brand development: working with different mediums at the studio. Collage,scissors, scanners, grit. Hands on, just how I like it.

• Dalston fashion sourcing: I’m still thinking about an intriguing Egyptian print bag I didn’t buy… 

• Frayed hems + ink-stained calligraphy from Jason Wu’s archives = my aesthetic of the week. Raw and rebellious but still carefully curated. 

Always looking to connect and collab on projects with brands or creators looking to cut through the noise. Hit me up if you're working on anything cool and creative on or off screen!
