The success of Vintage by Fé has been in creating collections characterised by a sophisticated feeling inspired by the early 1900s. The collection has a muted colour scheme, with a carefully chosen accent colour for every season ...”The pallet reflects past ways of life”. This fabulous collection may be worn as everyday use; and equally reserved for those special occasions.
The Vintage by Fé range is equally appealing across all age ranges; from 'New Found Followers of Fashion', to those 'Aficionados of Fashion' who appreciate the timeless appeal of the Vintage by Fé collection and continue to maintain a youthful appeal in an attractive in a sophisticated way.

Fresh Florals at Jaeger




Fresh Florals at Jaeger
Ah, the silk blouse: there's no better piece to slip on when the weather heats up. And, not only is ours a delight to wear, but it also features exquisite floral embroidery. All in all: a very special separate. Wear with everything from tailoring to denim.
Not one for graphic prints? Think of our silk top as more of a gentle nod: a hint of print if you will. Partner with fresh white jeans or chinos and finish with a statement necklace. Now pray for warm weather...
If you're looking to stand out this event season: this is the dress. Pops of our exclusive carnation print adorn a sleek, simple silhouette to create a piece that is bold and beautiful. Just add nude heels and a matching clutch.

The Right Stripes at Karen Millen




Karen Millen has created a limited edition striped atelier collection for Spring/Summer 15. Brave New Stripes* is a celebration of the new season and evocative of a light and playful mood for spring. Designed and perfected in their London atelier, each piece is numbered, sometimes offering as few as 30, and never more than 500.

Housed in KM's Shoreditch headquarters, Atelier is intrinsic to the way they design and create collections at Karen Millen. Every piece starts with a sketch in the design studio and the entire creative process takes place in-house. The atelier collections aim to showcase KM's signature craftsmanship, in turn allowing them to create experimental and exclusive fashion pieces with a unique focus on technique, creativity and innovation.

THIS LIMITED EDITION ATELIER COLLECTION SHOWCASES A PLAYFUL TAKE ON THE STRIPE TREND, PLAYING WITH ITS INFINITE VERSATILITY THROUGH A SERIES OF DIFFERENT FABRICATIONS AND TECHNIQUES.

From the perfect tee to the 24 hour dress, wardrobe essentials have been elevated with panelling, digitally manipulated and printed in sunny, paintbox brights. As always, tailoring expertise continues to be in focus; the stripe panel dress is cut on the circular for precise pattern matching, whilst the leather jacket is intricately panelled.

The Exchange Centre Manager shortlisted for Award


Neil Fincham, Centre Manager of #Nottingham’s oldest retail scheme, The Exchange, has been shortlisted for a major industry award.
On Tuesday 5th May the shortlist for the 2015 SCEPTRE Awards was announced, with Mr Fincham featuring in the Centre Manager of the Year category for small schemes, one of only six shortlisted candidates.
The SCEPTRE Awards, initiated by leading industry publication Shopping Centre Magazine in 1999, recognise the best practice and the best people in the shopping centre industry, and are the pre-eminent accolades in the sector. According to the publication, this year has seen a record number of entries.
Last year’s awards ceremony, held at London’s prestigious Dorchester Hotel, was hosted by stand-up comedian Simon Evans, with this year’s event also being held at The Dorchester.
The awards put the spotlight on management teams, retailers and suppliers that demonstrate real excellence in the sector, and are presented in 15 categories.
Mr Fincham, who is also a Director of Nottingham’s highly successful Retail & Leisure BID, commented, “Being shortlisted is an achievement in itself, particularly in the context of the number and calibre of this year’s entries. Much of the work in shopping centre management is behind the scenes – liaising with tenants and contractors, implementing security, developing a marketing strategy and so on – which the public doesn’t see. The SCEPTRE Awards are an excellent way of recognising the work of individual management personnel, so I hope I can go one step further.”
This year’s awards ceremony will take place on Tuesday 23rd June at The Dorchester, London.

PAS DE CALAIS at Tutu Urban Boutique





Reinventing Nostalgia with a Streak of Simplicity
Japanese simplicity meets French elegance in the Japanese street wear brand Pas de Calais. Yukari Suda has been the Pas de Calais designer since the company's launch in Japan, 1998. She balances Japanese simplicity with French elegance and each piece is defined by a clean and sophisticated aesthetic. Through various techniques from traditional dyeing to highly advanced technology, natural materials such as cotton, linen, and silk are transformed into original textiles which come together to compose a collection of effortless and wearable pieces.
The designer’s signature pieces include an elegant, light-to-the-touch cardigan and cropped sweatpants made of wool fabric; the kind typically used for business suits. This distinctive combination of fabric gives the line a fresh take on casual classics. In fact, the more you wear Pas de Calais, the more characteristic the textures becomes, which is just the kind of comfort Suda is seeking.
An essence of purity and nostalgia added to modern casual design, the Pas de Calais spirit is a romantic contemporary universe. Combining a variety of traditional dyeing and advanced techniques used with cotton, linen and silk, Pas de Calais develops its own original textiles. Natural materials are harmoniously composed into a comfortable wearable collection. The colour tones, like the surrounding landscape, are based on soft naturally subdued shades of ecru, sand, khaki green, chalk white, dove grey and coal black.
For a glimpse on how Pas de Calais’ pieces move, get into a summer mood with this homage to the French lifestyle that always embraces that internationally celebrated joie de vivre. See how these pieces capture the wanderlust spirit of this quite incredible collection.
