Disco, The Bill Bernstein Photographs This photographic show pays tribute to New York’s disco scene and inspires you to go home via a vintage shop and pick up a sequined jumpsuit! We are plied with images of Bianca Jagger and Andy Warhol carving up Studio 54’s dance floor but it’s a breathe of fresh air to…
The Edit: coats, coats, coats!

The Edit: October
Almost time to bring out the leather trousers. Track down an investment coat if you don’t already own one and eye up some knee high boots that are going to see you through the winter. Statement earrings can transform an all black outfit, we especially love the one’s from Uterqüe chosen for this edit. CLICK HERE…

Invest in a few staples and don’t go overboard, you’ll end up wishing you’d saved for the winter warmers! NB: ‘Normcore’ has reached saturation point; cue ‘Glamcore’ in time for the party season!

Jemima Kirke: Style Heroin?
For GLAMOUR.com 4/2/14 Why is she a style heroin? This is not a rhetorical question, I’m genuinely unsure. The actress, artist and mother’s outfits aren’t particularly trend-led. She isn’t LA-skinny and is a far cry from the refined, polished New Yorker governing the Gossip Girl situation. Not that I’m motivated by these factors, but she…
Kit & Ace: ‘the start up on steroids’
Lululemon ring any bells? You clearly haven’t been to Vancouver, or Canada, or the global high street for that matter. It’s the equivalent of visiting Paris and squinting at sparkly signs donning that unknown ‘Chanel’ or ‘Louis Vuitton’. Everyone in Vancouver is wearing Lululemon. Its founding family, the Wilsons, are the subject of electric ‘court’…
