Feels like it’s been so long. Is life moving so fast in this generation that when we desire something it begins to move in slow motion? Are we just used to getting what we want right away? Or do we require one another to feel right about all that is going on around us? Maybe our anticipation is justified by the fact that we genuinely cannot wait to share a moment again? Either way, your life and mine are scheduled to meet on October 24…I wouldn’t miss it for the world.
See you soon.

On the runway the collection was stunning, every single model that walked down the runway looked magnificent, the shapes, accessories, pattern, colour was fantastic, the attention to detail and styling was magnificent.
