I came across this wonderful video clip of fabrics. It captured my passion for prints. The clashing prints, colours, and style. If that wasn't enough, adorned by a beautiful tune to go with it.
I just had to share it! Watching this clip, was like opening a box full of unexpected goodies. Just nice.
As LFW is behind us now, I would like to share with you one of my favorite shows that have inspired me a great deal.
It is the show of designers Antoni Burakwski and Alishon Roberts, otherwise, known as Antoni & Alison.
The show gracefully opened the doors on day 1 of LFW with a literal bang of a live brass band. It was indeed their special day, not only being the first show but also celebrating their silver anniversary. A vibrant story of playful eye-catching prints, effortlessly chic, and simply 'zip-up-and-go' style. After following up on the week's show, I had come to the conclusion that Antoni & Alison were definitely my favorite by far on LFW 2012.
Personally, it ticked Anna Luks style of prints, fun, and colour. A&A's collection was a marriage of style and artwork which I like and every piece told a different story yet very harmonious. Love it!
I like this; A quote from The Independent "This time has been like an incredible apprenticeship," they state. "We have love being 'Antoni & Alison'; we have loved being an independent label. We design from scratch each season, experimenting with the need to find and have 'good ideas', and sometimes using our 'bad ideas."
Jestina George is a Tanzanian model/blogger who lives in London.
Jestina is wearing a bodysuit made out of silk jersey fabric with Anna Luks original print from the Spring/Summer 2010 collection (Colour Explosion).
Wrapped in ropes as I have mentioned in my earlier posts, this collection was inspired by Japanese rope bondage.

Jestina recently featured on the LGN Summer show which was held at the Alto Private Members venue in Central London UK on the 8th July 2011.
Jestina opened the Anna Luks catwalk with Anna Luks signature of prints and ropes after the amazing entrance that Jestina put up, she then made way for my new collection called 'Jungle Paradise'.
