Perfection!

Well ladies, it certainly seems to be the week for exciting deliveries at Thistle Street!!!

Erdem has just arrived and has brought yet another piece of Spring into the boutique. Cram packed with fresh floral prints, this collection is in stark contrast to its darker A/W 11 predecessor. A firm favourite of ours, and the designer himself, is the beautiful 'Isis' dress which we have in store now. More body-con than the other pieces, this dress is all about the decolletage and fresh summer skin.

The main inspiration behind this collection is the French book 'Bonjour Tristesse' (Hello Sadness) which follows central character Cecile whilst she holidays with her father and his mistress on the French Riviera. Erdem wanted a collection which would be 'optimistic, bright and youthful', and was taken by the idea of the young girl wearing the older woman's clothing to the beach. The result is a fresh take on vintage florals and feminine shapes.

So, whilst the temperatures drop outside and we all get a little chilly let yourself get lost in Erdem's latest masterpiece which invokes long, hazy summer days in the French Riviera.

Love,

Nikki
