    Marguerite Hannah, the designer behind this award-winning label,has created a theme of romantic escapism for the collection which will go on show at White Gallery. “I’m looking at a fluid, slim, linewith a 1920s feel – classic cuts with beautiful hand-beading will be the key outline here. The other strong story is a Gone with the Windlook with voluminous tulle and organza skirts nipped in at the waist. Beautiful Italian embossed silks in creams and golds will featurestrongly. Our philosophy is to push design boundaries forward while ensuring the commerciality of every gown we create.”
