I'M EXPERIENCING DYSPNEA BECAUSE OF DYSPNEA

It's been announced that Nasty Gal is going to stock Dyspnea! For anyone unfamiliar with the brand, it's aussie based and favoured by cool girls from down under such as how two live or shelby a.k.a the sugar fawn. Kicked off by a trio of grads who started designing at the weekends for friends and friends of friends, the brand's created collections with names such as 'Reptilia' and 'Paralysis'. According to the girls at Dyspnea the 'the quintessential Dyspet is the lovechild of Rihanna and Noel Fielding, Beyonce and Russel Brand'.

Their internet presence is just as sparkling as the garments undoubtedly are IRL. For their Paris Teaser clip,Vanessa from the haute pursuit wears a glittering, pom pom lined two piece whilst A$AP Rocky's Fashion Killa plays in the background. Mega babe Newsha Syeh models fairy tale outfits outside a candy coloured bungalow for SS15 and the brand blog features long dreamy posts about the glam travels of the Dyspnea gals. Jealous AF.

As for the clothes, 'Dyspnea' is the noun for difficult or laboured breathing, and the pieces are if anything, breath-taking. Either that or you'll experience a full on fash-gasm. These are glittery crop tops and fluff-lined sheer sweaters unlike anything you've seen in your wildest dreams.... think the sugar plum fairy on acid. But in Paris, being totally chill. Because whilst the garms are full on flashy, they've still got a certain fiesty-feel, a kick that renders them 'cool'. Pretty much the kind of stuff any #GirlBoss would want to wear. Just with a huge helping of sugar, spice and all things nice.

Q&A WITH ADRIANA DECO

Adriana Krawcewicz a.k.a Adriana Deco, fashion illustration grad from LCF, has quite literally drawn herself a life of freedom, colour and magic. Existing in the worlds of art, fashion and music, she merges her many talents together in a melting pot of fun experimentation and emotional expression. Her drawings, maximizing on line and colour certainly succeed in provoking that air of wonder and awe that all good illustration should. Her voice is smooth and soulful, her music inspired by the eighties pop scene. Upcoming for this multi-tasking media maverick is plenty; London Fashion Week coverage, her latest EP, a spot in Somer Flaherty's The Art of Fashion Illustration amongst many other projects, some secret. I met Miss Deco in Mess, next to the beautiful Saatchi Gallery where she'd been checking out Post Pop: East meets West, to chat about Barbarella, eighties pop culture and her man crush Nick Knight.

New 'IT' item


Something which is platitudious to the modern 'fashion blogger' is the wearing of 'it' items, see www.shitbloggerswear.tumblr.com for floods of examples. The slogan tee of course pops up every season, and I predict that the latest attempt at cult status, this 'more issues than vogue' t-shirt will be worn by many.
