Beautiful Soul

You probably don't know this but I'm a huge fan of eco-friendly fashion, so of course when I heard of the label 'Beautiful Soul' I had to find out more about them.

Beautiful Soul is a British luxury womenswear label based in the heart of Notting Hill. The eco-friendly label has been featured in acclaimed publications Vogue, Tatler, The Sunday Times Style and VOGUE.COM to name a few; and have participated in exhibitions at London Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week.

With all their designs produced here in the UK, the label strictly abides by its policy of 'zero waste', while still producing immaculately designed pieces. Beautiful Soul is fast growing label gaining recognition for their creativity and "open-minded approach to fashion". They offer two collections, their Ready-to-Wear collection called 'Beautiful Soul London' and a bespoke 'Kimono Collection' which is available to buy all year round.

Their designs have already been seen on a number of celebrities and models including Kate Nash, Lily Cole and Laura Bailey, among many others. I definitely need one of the Beautiful Soul Kimono's in my closet, it's not super cheap but well worth the money. Keep an eye out for the label as I'm sure they are bound to explode any time soon.

Miu Miu

Miu Miu is the high fashion brand and sister label of designer brand Prada. It was launched in 1993 by Muiccia Prada and since then, the label has become a household name in the fashion industry. While Prada's style is more sophisticated, Miu Miu is considered the girlish version of Prada and caters to a wider range of consumers.
                 

Former Miu Miu brand ambassadors include actresses Chloe Sevingny, Katie Holmes, Kirsten Dunst, Lindsay Lohan, and Selma Blair among models like Lindsey Wixson. In true unconventional  Miu Miu fashion, for their A/W 11 campaign they chose 14 year old Oscar nominated actress Hailee Steinfeld. 
I love Miu Miu and every season they manage to produce amazing clothes and accessories that are guaranteed to sell out in weeks and be on every fashion blogger's 'want list'. I can't wait to see what they present for their S/S 12 collection.

 From their chic and ladylike designs to their wild prints, Miu Miu's motto is avant-garde, modern, sensual, provocative, yet sophisticated; and with every new collection the brand embodies this and has warmed the hearts of fashionistas everywhere. Miu Miu is available at a number or stores worldwide and can be purchased online via the Miu Miu website and boutiques like Net-a-Porter and My Theresa.

Missoni

Missoni is not a new name in the fashion industry; the brand is renowned for its unique knitwear and colorful patterns that remain wearable and versatile. With every new collection they incorporate new styles but never lose the signature 'Missoni look'. For those fortunate to own a Missoni item, you are probably aware of how much craftsmanship goes into the clothes. The wool is soft, comfortable and unlike any other piece of knitwear. I  am constantly falling in love with their use of color each season and the pastel colours featured this Autumn/Winter season was simply amazing.

Missoni has influenced fashion not only in pattern and design but also have made knitwear more prominent among designers and consumers. Their clothes are typically created from as many types of fabric possible, such as wool, cotton, linen, rayon, and silk. The brand embodies today's modern culture, with 'it-girls' like Nicole Richie wearing Missoni  and even featuring Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester in their Spring 2011 campaign.

The luxury brand also has a chain of hotels- Hotel Missoni- in Kuwait and Edinburgh, with more to open in Brazil, Turkey, and Oman in the future. I can imagine the Hotel Missoni to be cool, modern with a classic approach, and of course luxurious.
