Duro Olowu's New Shop

We finally made a trip to visit our old Portobello Road neighbour Duro Olowu at his new shop on 14 Masons Yard. Surrounded by fine arts big names in The White Cube Gallery. Duro offers pattern print to his stark white surroundings.

A little inspiration

The inspiration for his S/S collection was the colours of Picasso’s ‘Mosqueteros’ paintings and the vibrant goings on of 125th Street in Harlem, New York.

Amazing shoes by Charlotte Dellal which provide a simplicity to the head rush of pattern print.
