Made in England: Dawson D Rose

Allow me to introduce to you the gorgeous Dawson D Rose; a beautiful online womenswear brand, with their creative roots firmly planted in vibrant and colourful Notting Hill. (Which may also be where I live.. so yes, I might be very excited about this.)

Inspired by all the vintage finds glittering along Portobello Road, Dawson D Rose has created a brand that’s stacked to the hilt with flattering silhouettes, timeless styles with sexy and sassy twists and.. this is the best bit.. customised flourishes and details.

Yep, because they place personal style higher in the fashion pecking order than seasonal trends, Dawson D Rose has made it possible for women to contribute to the design process, by adding their unique touch to ensure they feels as marvellous as marvellous can be.

The Westbourne Single Breasted Jacket – £180

This means you can select your fabric, your lining and even the buttons, to ensure your Dawson D Rose item has as much You in it as possible. And… all their pieces are beautifully crafted in England, so by investing in a piece or two, you’re investing straight back into our green and pleasant land. Love that.

The Lonsdale A-Line Top – £58

On 5th May 2014, Dawson D Rose launched their first ever Spring/Summer offering on The Line! In The Web! On tinternet!

The covetable capsule (just 10 stonking designs) collection mixes up classic with contemporary and elegance. It’s a marvellous mash-up. It’s a fashion fusion. It pairs sartorial elegance with bold and vibrant, limited edition fabrics… which will have you drooling into your granola.

The Colville Shirt – £85

Somehow Dawson D Rose has managed to mix the sharpness of men’s tailoring with a smart retro vibe, meaning you feel all put together, while staying soft and feminine and, well, flipping cool, actually.

Sizes range from a UK 8 to 16, and once you have ordered your unique creation, the crafting process takes two weeks and then it will wing its way over to you…

The capsule collection comprises of 10 lux, wardrobe essentials, which offer incredible fit through an assortment of expertly tailored silhouettes.

The Ladbroke Shirt – £90

The product range is being expanded as I type (ready-to-wear handmade collars are already in the works) and the fabric range is also regularly updated, so the Dawson D Rose offering is always fresh and unique.

So, you can order a new fully customisable piece for each new season and be the envy of all who pass you in the street – you may find you pick up a stalker or two, for everyone will want to know where you get your super chic style…
