So you may remember a little way back in April I did a bit of gushing about Swedish label House of Dagmar….well I’m back to do some more. I received a nice email from Karin (one of the three sisters behind the label) allowing me access to the A/W 09 pics and press release and I have to say, it just gets better….
Their A/W collection is slightly darker and edgier. It seems more grown up, a little more sexed up if you know what I mean. There’s lots of leather, as skirts and skin tight leggings thrown against slinky silks and what looks like soft velvet. Oversized knitted woollens in dusty browns and oranges are a contrast against an all white ensemble.
There is not one item that I don’t love or couldn’t imagine myself wearing. What I really fell in love with in these pics though is the creaminess of the models skin against the colours….
I love the slick structured look of the leather against the ruffled dress and jumper in the two outfits above. Also the exposed zip dress….
A fresh take on the oversized blazer. I’d love to have the confidence to wear just this alone…
I’m loving the plain grey against what I think looks like some silky velvet material in crushed pink…
I presume there is a little shrug type thing over the white dress and I think it looks knitted which gives it a big fat tick in my book…
This collection looks more structured. Each item of clothing looks like an extra layer or shield over the skin. Gushing aside I absolutely love it…could you tell????
Such amazing stuff!
My shoes were a new look sale find (£7!!! down from £25)
I saw them a couple of weeks ago and tried them on, and they were down to £12,
went back last week and they had one pair left, my size, £7…I couldn’t refuse!
i adore the crushed velvet maxidress! amazing stuff. xoxo
wow i love them! specially that long gorgeus dress and the orange? jacket <3
Ummm…wow! Perfect choice of model. The auburn hair really sets off their pieces.
