UK based Swash is one of the most refreshing finds I’ve encountered in awhile. You know, because as much as I like black and grey, I’ve wearied of the popular aggressive look that’s been so dominant in the past few years. Swash’s printed scarves, bags, and clothes are just gorgeous and inspiring and a sight for sore eyes. You can find a few of their scarves for sale on Liberty of London’s site. I’ve featured their S/S 09 and F/W 09 clothing collections (click the images to enlarge), but visit the site* to see their equally beautiful scarves
*A warning if you visit the Swash site: It has got to be one of the THE WORST Flash built sites I’ve seen since 2001. To make a viewer sit through literally three minutes of load time on a fast connection in the year 2009 (almost 2010) is just pure insanity and they need to fire their designer stat!
I haven’t posted anything from personal favourite, Maria Cornejo, lately, as I’ve been somewhat uninspired by her more recent collections. Fortunately, her S/S 08 collection is chock full of beautiful, muted prints, and the expert draping that has come to define her modern aesthetic (F/W 08 is wonderful, too). She’s also expanded her accessories, and those pieces are just as nice.
