for her

Stuck for what to get your BFF or girlfriend? Here are a few things that may give you some inspiration! 


Pieces - £32

I feel lost if I don't own at least one bag that I can take everywhere and just dump stuff in. Something I can use for a shopping trip, or just a night away from home. And I think this one is perfect for just that.


ASOS - £9


It's absolutely freezing outside, and these are absolutely adorable. I need say no more.


Dogeard - £32

I really do think these are adorable; I love having a pair of studs that I can just wear with everything and not have to worry about and these would add edge to any look with the least amount of effort ever. Perfect.

William Richard Green

William Richard Green left Central Saint Martins in 2009 with a degree. He trained on Savile Row and at David David. These two utterly opposite experiences gave him knowledge on quality craftsmanship and cut but also on the fun nature of a graphics-based street wear label. 

'IDEAL CLIENT: “A really rich chav who likes to dress like a clown.”

TRADEMARK PIECE: “A variation on a boiler suit I guess.”' - British Fashion Council.

It works in Green's favour that we in the UK have a lot of support for young designers and has led British menswear being a lot more diverse than anywhere else in the world; I think bringing together the playfulness of graphics in street wear and the more lux feel of structure and cut is important for any man who wouldn't feel quite at home in a suit, bow tie and brief case all day, but similarly if they wouldn't feel themselves plastering OBEY all over themselves. Green is fun, he doesn't take himself too seriously but you know he's great at what he does, and that really reflects in his garments.

Matthew Miller

Matthew Miller studied at the Royal College of Art. Before he set up his own label, he worked on projects with designers, namely Umbro and Brioni, but there were more.

'TRADEMARK PIECE: “Engineered digital prints and structured tailoring."' - British Fashion Council.
 
For Miller, his designs are aimed at the young and talents individuals who want to make themselves known, individuals who know what they want and how they want to get it. And with digital prints combined with structured tailoring, I don't really think you can do wrong. 

Miller seems to love the juxtaposition of clean cuts accompanied with loose shirts and toulsed hair, and I think this fits so perfectly with his design audience - the successful youths, who are just that, successful, but still young.
