Louise Gray

When Louise Gray says: ‘I love colour everywhere’ she’s not joking – her collections are made up of joyful, quirky and always unusual colour palettes that make her sophisticated yet playful clothes pop. The Scottish born designer is another Central St Martin’s Graduate, who has not only worked with Peter Jensen and Lanvin but also sold work to Diane Von Furstenburg. It’s the balance of simplicity and embellishment, elegance and quirkiness that make Gray’s clothes special: In her last collection, mirrored corset tops, lean blazers and sleek mini-dresses, rendered with flashes of fuchsia, lemon and royal blue, were both fashion forward and surprisingly wearable thanks to Gray’s way with a streamlined, flattering silhouette. ‘Ultimately,’ Gray says of her work, ‘it’s about fun. ’And no-one could argue with that.
