Tai Shan Schierenberg

Recently I went to an exhibition curated by a friend of mine at Flowers East in Shoreditch. I ended up in the back room and there falling in Love with Tai Shan Schierenberg.
He is renowned for his portraits but it is his "Landscape" paintings which evoked something deep inside me …..

★Down Nixieland memory lane ★

Looking through images of old Collections and seeing how much my girls have grown up gives me a sense of utter satisfaction. I still love the design as I feel they are timeless not stuck in some period or fashion trend....hope you agree XXX

Ocean - Nixie Clothing Spring/Summer 2014


This season we present a selection of twelve new designs, drawing inspiration from the diversity of oceanic life.

Modern, sustainable, designed-and-made in Britain, the Collection highlights juxtaposed fabric choices and unique details...soft jerseys in bright NEONS , subtle PINKS ,MUSTARD with OCEAN BLUE...flowing flower-printed chiffons... and vintage silks offset against grey notes.

Diving into a magical world beneath the surface, the designs reflect form and movement
– like the jellyfish 'bell' shape for our Jelly Poncho
– or the fins of a (Siamese) Betta Fish moving like angel wings in the current, for our Betta Dress…

In all we do, we try to remember that our oceans, and indeed the lives of any rare species, are becoming increasingly threatened.

(P.S. though the Jellyfish has no heart ,no bones, no brain...it has been around for 650 million years!)
