Pretty In Preen




Some of you fashionista's out there might already know the fashion power house Preen and I was recently reminded at how amazing this design duo is with the introduction of their Fall/Winter 2011 Collection.

A little about them:
Preen is a British design duo composed of Justin Thornton and Thea Bregazzi. They first designed together when asked by Helen Storey to consult on her Fall/Winter 1996/7 collection. Excited by the experience of designing together they launched Preen. Their first collection was sold from their tiny atelier/boutique off Portobello Road and with much success. They have continued building upon that success collection after collection.

Much like my previous article on Alexander Wang, they make a ready-to-wear collection that is a little more accessible but still costs a pretty penny. But the glory of these designers is that a lot of their stuff is bought by online boutiques and sold at great prices! You can find Preen and http://www.ssense.com/, http://www.revolveclothing.com/ and many others!

Their Fall/Winter line is so whimsical and flowy that you can't help but want to wrap yourself in their overgrown coats and beautifully crafted wool sweaters! Since I am not the biggest fan of wearing too much color, this new line really tugs at my heart because they play so magically with nude tones that border on peach aswell as the dark black that is expected of the colder seasons. I hope you guys enjoy these designers as much as I have because I truly believe that their line is a work of art...
