For their A/W 12 collection, SISTER by SIBLING designers Sid Bryan, Joe Bates and Cozette McCreery imagined a romantic partner to SIBLINGs marked man.
She is the archetype of a bygone figure that would hold court in many an East End pub, they said before the Saturday morning presentation. She dresses gorgeously and stoically, raising the spirits of both herself and those around her.
The resulting knits were ladylike, if the lady in question had been was electrified with high-voltage East London spirit. This SISTER wears vivid leopard twinsets with Fair Isle accents, heavily sequinned jumpers, and at least one fluoro orange faux-fur fox stole.
