Fashion collabos may come and go every autumn, this fame name for that name house, with bloggers queueing from like yesteryear to bag first off the racks. HohuM.
And then there’s Alexa Chung. As British as they come, the 32-year-old icon for modelling, TV presenting, Vogue writing, muse and darling to designers in the industry. For her personal style.
Distinctive and individual, not fuelled by trends, nor sex, nor drugs, well maybe some rock n roll.
Almost always in pole position on best-dressed lists, and sat frow at fashion shows, it’s no Sherlock that Marks & Spencer, that bastion of quality Brit goods, has engaged Alexa Chung (Chinese father, English mother) to archive its latest collection.
What a journey of re-discovery! Taking creative ownership, Alexa Chung has “re-styled” M&S’s heritage pieces afresh. From the 40s to the 00s, vintage, mod, retro, evergreens, staples.
Gabardine, paisley, ground cotton, linen, twill.
The 27-piece collection is available at Marks & Spencer, Wheelock Place. From $69.90.
