As I am here, thought i'd start to post a few things that came in recently that have yet to make it to the shop floor, but will be getting there soon.
First up today, a ST-HUH-UNNNING Jonathan Saunders rainbow gown;

Gosh, this is just darn amazing. This really is one of those, "Who's that girl.." dresses. It appeared on the catwalk for Saunders Autumn/Winter 2007/8 collection (http://www.jonathan-saunders.com/collections-archive-aw0708.html) It was also used for the opening of Lulu&Co, under the Fashion East umbrella (the boutique that champions up and coming new designers). Saunders is one of Lulu Kennedy's success stories, hence why she chose to bring him in. He was part of the capsule collection of hand picked designer dresses at Lulu&Co in Harvey Nichols. Here she is in the dress with George Lamb at the launch night in October last year.

Created to really make an entrance, this dress is super dramatic, and was originally meant as a catwalk gown. Being 100% silk means it is not only spectacular, but comfortable and cool as well. You can't see it from the picture, but the main dress is panelled with satin pieces and the sleeves are cuffed with the same. I think this may have been worn once, but no more than that. It is in amazing condition. This would have retailed at over £1000 and is a size 10/12. We have priced it at £480.
