Berliners Do It Better

Berliners Do It Better

Penelope's Sphere, AW 10/11. I need to see more of this label.

Berlin-based designer Tamari Nikoleishvili has concocted an absolutely winning combination of unique panelling, fabrication and drape. Not to mention back views to be proud of; I do love it when the back makes me a little bit more excited than the front. And tell me this model isn't Lady Gaga? Uncanny.

AW 09/10

That airmail scarf. I'm completely in love. And I'm really quite impressed at how adventurous and varied the designs are within the one collection. Looking forward to what comes next.

I discovered Penelope's Sphere at the very ace Wut Berlin in Tokyo, one of my favourite boutiques of all time, ever (I've harped on about it in My Tokyo), and the go-to place for innovative up-and-coming German labels (if in Japan). Garsh, only a few weeks until I move. See you soon Tokyo/Berlin.
