More Holly Fulton

I love Asos! it has a collection of Holly Fulton Dresses for bargainous prices!
I am tempted to buy one for this years May Ball but I can't choose which one. It's between the yellow and the beige sleeved shift dress.

They also have a lovely skirt and some new jewellery. A contemporary Art Deco heaven.

Ellie Goulding is wearing a piece in her video for 'Starry Eyed'. I think its just the necklace I can't be sure about the dress.



its a fab song, sorry you can only see half of the video, I'm not sure how to change that? any ideas?

Art Deco Architecture

I've mentioned before how much I love the Hoover building however if your visiting London, it is a bit out of the way. I found this list of Art Deco buildings on the V&A website.

click on the spots on the map and it will give you a picture, there are a lot in central London so its worth having a look.


I love the old theatres and cinemas and I would love to stay the weekend in Claridges it looks incredible!

Not on the map, but just as wonderful are some of the London Underground tube stations many of them were built in the 1930s.

Look here for some more examples

(I love objective photography like this)

Art Deco Elegance

I love adorning each one of my coats and jackets and sometimes even a hat, with a brooch that says something about me. If you love Art Deco then you will love these.

Made from layered acrylic. There are a few different designs such as the 1930s sunhat or the 20s style cloche, which you can get in various colours.
Available from the Victoria & Albert Museum shops and online: http://www.vandashop.com

Holly Fulton

I recently discovered up and coming fashion designer Holly Fulton. I was immediatley drawn to her use of vivid block colours.

'I have a huge love of art deco and Bauhaus styles, cubist fashion and the geometry within all these genres and the re-interpretation of these into contemporary materials gives me huge inspiration' Holly Fulton

Fulton's designs represent Art Deco well, the garments are modern and the adornment of crystals and studs add a luxurious feel which is synomynous with the 1920s and 30s. Geometric shapes and patterns on sleek but structured silhouettes resemble Deco architecture such as the Chrysler building .

The accessories also compliment the look well, overlarge beads and bibs are very tribal in style and the exoctic was a great influnece in the beginning of the last century. The perspex and metals of the jewellery play off on the sheen of the PVC, silk and patent leather.

Some of her new pieces will be worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in the new Sex and the City movie.


These are my pick of faves spanning from all 3 of her collections.


I must admitt though, I'm not a fan of the fake eyebrows! :P
