Esprit / RCA party

Last night, Irish Tatler ed Jessie Collins and I hit up the Esprit flagship store on London's Regent Street for the launch of the store's limited edition collection in collaboration with the Royal College of Art. Entitled 'Sheep Couture' - the partnership involved a competition where 22 of this year's RCA grads worked to the brief of a sustainable capsule collection. The three winning designs (by Victoria Hill, Amelie Marciasini and Katie Hildebrand) were  re-interpreted by Esprit for sale in its selected stores in the U.K.

With knitwear experiencing a timely redux; not to mention LFW's big wool push, be prepared to ditch that love-worn cardi. I had to practically be pried off the bobbly jumpers - so soft and cuddly!  Guests on the night were treated to t-shirt making, photo opps in granny's knitting chair, elderflower martinis and some rather strong gin, beetroot, spinach libations topped with wool-inspired candyfloss. Alice Dellal busted out some rad tunes from the Clash to Biggy Smalls and a I left with a new pair of boobs. See below...
