The door in my wardrobe*

*the door not actually being there was a disappointment - but at least I was allowed to play with the clothes

//// Dead Birds & Lionheart

Posted on | August 27, 2009 | No Comments

Dead Birds & Lionheart was previously unknown Finnish brand for me, I ran into it in Sugar Kane’s lovely blog (in Finnish, but see her pictures of a beautiful DB&L dress here) — and wanted instantly to know more. Unfortunately their website is not very up to date, so I wrote an e-mail and asked some fresh pictures. The site is worth visiting, though, especially the SS 08 collection Piscina Mirabilis is breathtakingly beautiful!

And friendly Maria from DB&L sent me some images from summer 09 collection:

The overall feeling is bit romantic, feminine but not overtly sweet, with slight dark twist. Clean lines but usually with some trick in the cut and interesting materials. Definitely something I would like to add to my wardrobe — and this autumn it will be easier. Their designs will be available at Liike (Helsinki) from September! A small selection of their goods can be purchased from www.designshopoutlet.com.
