Swimwear is always a high priority for us women when it comes to summer shopping. We’re always on the hunt for a stylish new bikini or flattering swimsuit to show off our curves and figures on holiday.
If you have already wandered up and down the high street searching for the right piece but have had no luck, why not have a look-see at Brazilian-born model and designer Gabriela Dias’ collection! She has released a new line of swimwear available this summer which is full of bright, bold and colourful pieces!
Created by Gabriela herself, this handmade swimwear range will definitely get heads turning and will show off your curves amazingly! The simple yet sexy designs are updated with little details such as braids and zips and come in vibrant shades of yellow, purple, blue, red and pink, fitting in perfectly with one of this summer’s hottest trends!
Print designer Dominique Mosley and fashion designer David Longshaw have collaborated once again to bring us fashionistas a gorgeous new scarf collection named ‘Around the World’!
The range mixes Dominique’s vivid prints with David’s quirky, creative illustrations and follows on from The London collection and the adventures of fictional fashion blogger Selnec’s journey from one fashion capital to the next.
Dominique Mosley says:
“Since launching our respective labels, David and I had always talked about working together. The eccentric illustrations that he has become known add a unique twist to my graphic print style. In combining the two, we have set out to create a quirky yet stylish collection of investment pieces that in addition to forming a desirable range also tell an interesting story.”
The collection of exclusive silk scarves is made up of 5 designs (and a fabulous tote bag!) all capturing the mood of each city perfectly. Each style is incredibly unique and beautiful – I have a soft spot for the Paris scarf though! The subtle colouring makes the piece versatile and chic.
These scarves make great statement accessories and can be worn from day to evening. Wear round your neck to give your outfits pops of quirky colour or tie round your handbag for decorative chic!
The Around the World collection is available from Harrods or online at www.dominiquemosley.com
