“This is my favorite-I want me to fit into a serpentine (summer party) tonight,” Ellis Temper of a dark blue cut-out gown said, embroidered as a delicate gold leaf, during a preview in his West London store. The designer is doubling his signature fabric for the first resort collection of his brand over the years, exploiting the demand for further wear of the festive season (the land of collection in shops in November and December).
Of course, the party’s clothes are Temper’s Raison D’tray, since he has started the choice of Kate Moss and Sienna Miller to launch the brand back in 2000. This season sees the return of old favorite as a designer’s legacy offer, which is ready for rendering for silver and scarlets, red. It is a will for loyal customers of Temperly that these designs are equally prestigious when they were first released. “They are just classic pieces,” Temperly explained. “We keep walking them because this is what people are asking.”
While the day’s wear is a smattering of the day’s wear (velvet suiting has been particularly popular in recent seasons), most brands of the collection are closer to closely with the tried and tested DNAs of the new design label. The ornate art deco-induced gown, decorated with sequins flowers; Slip and bodiesuts characteristic of heavy beaded overlays; The more structured gold clocke dress, inspired by the Hollywood of the ’40s. As Temperi prepares to celebrate its 25th anniversary in the next season, it is clear that longevity in this industry does not require the wheel to rebuild.
