With her first graduate collection under her belt, 24 year old Eleanor Amoroso is now set to make her impact on the fashion world. What makes Amoroso so unique is that she personally created the entire collection using the 13th century Arabic technique of macrame, which is when the fabric is knotted by hand rather than sewn or knitted. How wonderfully old school. The collection is powerful, fierce and confident, as can be seen from the sweeping dramatic fringing and the strength of the statement necklines and jewellery. Part of her inspiration for the designs came from African tribal clothing so this is a label for any modern-day urban warrior princess.

Jewels of the Kalahari Bushmen, photography by Boo George
Tuesday, January 11, 2011
Love these: pictures of models backstage by photographer (and fellow Irishman!) Boo George. Boo George got into photography accidentally, having started out studying media in Dublin. Undoubtedly though, it was a happy accident; as he has since travelled around the world with his work; as well as contributing to editorials for high profile publications including LOVE magazine, Twin, Arena Homme + and i-D. I love the understated and almost nonchalant quality of his pictures: they are both captivating, drawing you in and at the same time tantalising, leaving you wanting to know more.
