Soapbox State Of Mind...


Soapbox will be one brand which will revolutionise street wear as we know it. That's right the urban brand is back and ready to tackle Spring Summer '12 with a bang, Brace yourself because this is one collection YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON!

"State Of Mind" focuses on how each designer was feeling at the time the ideas for this collection were composed. It not only adds a personal element to each garment, but it also adds statement and will definitely get heads turning while you strut down the street!


Each collection within the brand have a rather satirical element to them, my personal fave is the "Taking the Mickey tee" which is a re-release from last season after being a popular hit for the Soapbox team. It portrays how people can take advantage, by wearing or not wearing a mask, resulting in deception.

Other collections are "Between King & Queen" which give the comical approach to what a King and Queeen are doing or shouldn't be doing.... *wink wink*

Another range within the collection, "Till The End" looks at Loyalty and friendship focusing on having a friendship lasting forever, BUT has a twist..

Each of the ranges within the collection will bring a fresh new element to ones wardrobe, not only will it look good, Soapbox provide the best in comfort and Value for money,
"Our main focus is the fit and quality in every aspect of our brand from design to execution in our products"
- Ama, Soapbox

As well as the return of the Notorious Varsity Jacket an iconic statement peice for Soapbox.

Mary Katrantzou Bloom Into Spring/Summer '12



With the events of London Fashion Week coming to an amazing close last week, I feel one thing on everybody's mind was the talent that sprung into our wardrobes.

The one and only Mary Katrantzou was in full bloom this season as her amazing new collection hit Topshop's Flagship store. Within minutes her skater dresses, prom dresses and t-shirts sold through making Mary the must have designer to rock this Summer!

Mary K is one of the most renowned faces to hit the British Fashion scene. She was supported by the British Fashion Council for Newgen in 2008 which sponsored Mary for a full collection for six Seasons. In 2008, her first collection was shown at London Fashion Week; resulting in Mary's collection now becoming available in over 60 stores on the High Street.


Emerging with Topshop in 2010 for an autumn/winter collection, began the journey for her success and took her to new heights, as many celebrities such as Keira Knightly were spotted wearing one of the silk Aztec dresses; 2010 also saw Mary K the winner of the Swiss Textile Award.

Mary Katrantzou brings a breath of fresh air into this seasons wardrobe concentrating on floral prints, silks and bright colours to brighten up the dull British weather.
