They used this skill to design prints inspired by Turning Leaf wines for a limited edition dining set collection to kick off Turning Leaf’s Designers in Residence program, available exclusively at The Shop at Bluebird on King’s Road in London.

PPQ added I Dream of Jeannie-like toppers to their ruffly dresses and Luella splashed retro veiled hats and riding caps across her floral outfits. We Read more →

Our favorites: Basso & Read more →
