Sigourney Weaver. Born Susan Alexandra Weaver in 1949, who is most notable for her roles in Alien and Gorillas in the Mist (and let’s not forget those 80’s classics, Working Girl and Ghost Busters), who is not just an actress but a staunch environmentalist.

OLD COW. Another bespoke clutch bag, made for a special London lady, with detachable wrist strap, sections to separate your contents, slots for credit cards. Made with genuine cow hide, and solid brass fittings.
Meryl Streep. That respectable actress who follows no doctrine, is the spokesperson for the National Womens History Museum, is the iron lady, the mother, the oscar winner, the woman.
Didn’t you just die and end up in a leather-stocked heaven?
Girl done good.
This one is for that beautiful and talented girl that hales from Tottenham. Adele. [With thanks to The Gentlewoman for the image of her that graced their cover in SS11]
Pearl #1 beading detail. Planned, deliberate, randomness.
The inner workings of one of our very simple untreated leather NAKED Pencil Cases (some people use them to carry their plane tickets and passports when travelling, and others use them to organise their bags).
‘Ballet Mécanique’ by Fernand Léger.
Alice Prin, aka Kiki de Montparnasse, the illegitimate child born into abject poverty who became the brave and notorious lady behind the cultural liberation and sexual emancipation of Paris of the 1920’s. Her face and body were the immortalised subject of many artists works. She was once the uncredited subject of the Dadaist short film entitled ‘Ballet Mécanique’ by Fernand Léger, and the muse of Man Ray.
Characterised by her pointy-painted upper lip, angular bob-cut black hair, and curvy body - but mostly it was her bravery to liberate herself in ways women had previously been restricted.
Life. Style. The home of dancer and choreographer Rudolf Nureyev, which was built by the Russian choreographer Leonid Massine of the Ballet Russe, and later refurbished by the architect Le Corbusier, on the Italian island of Li Galli on the Tyrhennian Sea.
Anna Karina, the Danish-turned-French muse and one time wife of the pioneer of the french new wave - Jean Luc Godard.
Her style was characterised by its simplicity. From the muted colours and simple cuts of her clothes, to the heavy fringe and cat eye make-up.
