Scarf face

It's Monday. It's late. I moved house at the weekend. And today I was accused by a guest house I recently stayed in, of urinating into the lamp. So I'm going to make this short and sweet and hope tomorrow brings better things. 


More scarves from Miss Kiki Salon Presents and the interview I did can be read here: Queens of Vintage

By artist and film-maker Adele Elizabeth , the above was inspired by vintage illusionists, levitation and the nursery 'Who Killed Cock Robin?'

'The Paphiopedilum, commonly known as the 'ladies slipper', has intrigued Darkest Star,' explains Miss Kiki. 'They have studied the flower from the first sign of bud to the glory of full bloom, slowly wilting to final decay.'

Oriental kitsch meets Zen-inspired glamour, by Kundalini Arts.

“Birds are expressions of freedom, of joy in movement, of grace and style; I hope that this design will be worn in the same spirit,” says its designer Mark Wylder.

Mad Hatters

Topshop Unique aren't the only ones who predict we'll be walking around in head gear inspired by the wildest of the animals in the wood come autumn.

Not excited by the antlers, or the sheepskin that's prevailed over London Fashion Week? Allow me to introduce Miss Kiki Salon Presents... a fashion collective who've just launched a range of silk scarves inspired by up and coming artists and designers. The print above is the work of Yiannis Katsaris and Ghoulia Peculiar and here's how it could look:

Fifty silk panels have been created for the project, which is an echo as well as a fitting ode to the work of Zika Ascher in post-war London. He and his wife Lida persuaded artists like Matisse and Henry Moore to lend their designs to silk panels and these were taken up by couture houses like Dior and YSL. I've just interviewed Miss Kiki about the scarves for Queens of Vintage, so more pictures and link to follow.
