How To Wear Pantone's Colour Of The Year

The Colour Company Pantone have unveiled their colour of the year for 2017... and it's a vibrant, tangy shade of green. What a great way to kick start the year! After all there is nothing like a vivid, bold colour to cheer us all up and welcome in the new year. From fashion to interiors this colour will be popping up all over the place, so we thought we'd share some tips on how to style and wear this zesty hue.

Tip  1: Overusing this bright shade can be altogether too risky for most, unless you like to shock! Therefore we suggest pairing it with simpler, softer tones to create a striking contrast like the print in this Green Bird Print Scarf.

Tip 2: Go for a statement accessory or funky shoe in this shade to highlight or draw attention to your best features. For example tying a bold green neckerchief around your neckline will show off a slender neck or compliment green eyes.

Tip 3: Another option is to experiment with neon accessories. For example a leather jacket or denim mini dress look awesome, teamed with a fluorescent clutch and vivid bangles.

However you choose to wear this gorgeous greenery, it'll certainly brighten up your year and fill you with optimism and confidence.

Beam me up Hottie!

We love it when technology makes fashion more gorgeous and we are even more thrilled when we can sneak it into our vintage style dresses collection! Laser cutting is seriously hot right now and with brands like Self Portrait making sparks, it was only a matter of time before the High Street muscled in on the action.

Self-Portrait 

The glory of laser cutting is the intricate lace inspired patterns that can be created and the current trend of mounting these on nude layers add a seriously sexy overall look.

We have finally been able to introduce some pieces to our new season collection including this pretty spectacular laser cut black playsuit. Oh-so seventies with those bell sleeves and full of playful details, this 1970s style playsuit is a party dress alternative that will knock yours socks off.

If you are more of a classic chick, or are looking to imitate the current catwalk looks, then go for our lace prom dress in black or blue - these stunning vintage style prom dresses are still Mad Men gorgeous but that cut out detail and daring neckline, make these dresses one of the hottest styles we have ever stocks.

So, while you are dancing in those night club lasers, bring a little laser action to your vintage style dress too!

Flapper girl for a day: RMV does the movies

Our very own Marie recently took part as an extra in the filming of an independent project run by the production company Six O's Studio, where she spent the day masquerading as a flirty flapper! Located in a 1920s cafe beautifully named 'The Cafe Wisteria', the scene is set for hero Peter Pendragon to meet the love of his life, who also happens to be his nemesis...

Article from Moseley B13 Magazine

An array of fringing and feathers, glimmering sequins, twenties props and luxurious beading decorated the glorious scene. It was a lavish trip back in time to the opulent elegance of the jazz age, with every actor head-to-toe in Gatsby style glamour and the location adorned with all of the flapper era extravagance you could ever dream of. Our flapper dress and diamante clutch bag totally complimented the dazzling decadence of the scene.

You can find further information about Six O's Studio over on their Twitter. Check out photos from the day below...

This Wilbur and Gussie Edith Clutch adds that extra shimmer to our fringe flapper dresses

Wes Anderson Inspiration

This week we’re totally inspired by Ken Harman’s 6th annual Wes Anderson art show recently exhibited in New York. We love the quirky style of the characters from the films, from Agatha’s cute bow dress and Suzy’s peter pan collars to melancholic Margot’s sultry edge, the films never disappoint! Check out exhibition photos here.

If you’re still lusting after the kooky outfits long after the film has finished, don’t fret! We have some great pieces for you to recreate that nostalgic Wes Anderson look.

If morose Margot takes your fancy try these key shift dresses, layer up with a vintage coat and hair accessories.

  

Collar up like Suzy with these cute dolly dresses:

  

Or tie yourself a bow like Agatha!
