I've Moved...

It's been quiet on this blog for a while, the reason for that being that I've moved.
I've explained why over on my new blog, so make the transition and head on over to...

MODÉLISTE | The Embellished Beanie

Hand Embellished beanie - £30
I understand that my line is not accessible to everyone at the moment, and I've always stated that I would bring out accessories at some some point which I would have liked to have done for this Christmas but I have been pretty busy with a freelance job I've got going on as well as working on my AW13 collection. So, I have made some hand embellished beanie's (seriously, every diamante is sewn on individually) that will be on sale on my e-shop soon, but if you don't want to wait for the e-shop and would like to get some orders in before Christmas then email me at:
samuella[dot]palmer[at]gmail[dot]com
I'm probably stating the obvious but, incase I've confused you, where it says [dot] replace with ".", where it says [at] replace with "@" - I'm trying to avoid spam

Canoe PR Press Day

A few weeks ago, I received an invite to visit the Canoe PR press day, and as I was in the area, I decided to pop by. It was my first press day that I had actually managed to attend as they usually clash with work or I just don't get round to visiting.

I wasn't sure if I should go or not as Canoe PR look after brands that are geared towards streetwear and although I admire street wear (I'm a South London girl) I hardly incorporate it into my wardrobe. However, it was interesting to look at upcoming products and see how I could make them work.

Puma was one of my favourites at the press day. They have taken on the concealed wedge trend (giving me Air Yeezy tease-which is always a good thing), they have a hot McQueen collabo lined up and I really like their anti-camo items.

I absolutely love what Route One are releasing in Spring 2013; their Snapbacks, Beanie's, Rucksacks-if I were a boy....

It was great to visit not just to see what is soon to be released, but to get a thorough breakdown of each brand and their collection and, from a designer's point of view, it was great to know how a press day operate's.

Bracher Emden

I was fortunate enough to be invited to the Bracher Emden show room earlier in the year, but then the Olympics happened and well I only got round to visiting a couple of weeks ago.

Bracher Emden is an accessories label that launched in Spring/Summer 2002 with handmade leather bags created in their Covent Garden store. After a successful 10 years, they are now stocked on Boticca.com, in Harrods as well as on their website.

Bracher Emden bags have been on the arms of many A-Listers such as Dita Von Teese, Rihanna, Eva Longoria and Beyonce, and we have seen collaborations between the Bracher Emden and brands such as Swarovski, Jean-Pierre Braganza, and Bora Aksu.

With bags that range from colourful and intricate to embellished, monochromatic and elegant, the brand has something for everyone.

It was great to meet the team. I was talked through the different collections, collaborations, and the history of the brand and I was also given tips for my own label which was very much welcomed and I am so grateful for. I also have my eye on several bags and I will definitely keep them in mind when I'm shooting the next 'Samuella Palmer' collection.

I didn't look at any typography when I first saw this editorial but it instantly gave me Aaliyah vibes, and it so happens that it actually was an Aaliyah-inspired shoot. There's a thin line between cheesy and genius, and this spread certainly falls in the latter. Well done Andreas Kokkino.
