Sophisticated Woman-
Logic meets Allure

She's all it needs: The Sophisticated Woman. But what's she like, how does she act, what does she wear, how does the world see her? It's all in my new collection. She's sensationally sensible: Investment fashion is in the spotlight. Premium fabrics from superbly elegant tweeds to quality silk and finest cashmere.

She's provocatively reserved: Subtlety is the new in-your-face. Muted lines and colours pique the imagination more effectively than loudness and brashness ever could. Cool White, Ocean Blue and Grey combine with warm earthy shades from Beige to deepest Brown. Purist Black, Putty and Slate are teamed with fruity, rich Cherry, Blackberry and Chocolate and gemstone hues from Ruby and Amethyst to golden Topaz.

She's intoxicatingly elegant: Successful women have ousted party girls. Confident contours and assured combinations. Always strong, never overbearing; always cool, never craven. The black fur scarf as an accessory teamed with slim pants, flowing dresses with severe blazers, casual oversized items with cropped tops. She's perfectly imperfect: A Sophisticated Woman knows that perfection is dull, and seeks out style clashes: classic tartan for an ultra-mini, sequinned tops under thoroughly British blazers, delicate skirts plus rustic hooded sweaters.

She's seductively smart: She blends the romantic and the pragmatic – adores dreamy shirts and dresses, but ensures they're worth the price tag. She makes the most of a luxury accessory; an elegant fur doubles as a scarf, skirt or stole. And first and foremost: nothing throws the Sophisticated Woman off balance. In strappy heels or barefoot, she always has both feet firmly on the ground.
