LUELLA lllllllluuuuueellla

Ladylike and quirky, a punk inspired Chanel-ism with a dip dye from the British Music scence.....with an extremly English feeling. These are the thoughts that flow when i think of the lovely Luella!

Alexa chung, Roisin murphy, Kelly osbourne, Jamie winestone (who is going out with Lilly allens brother but I often wonder why the hell shes in every magazine...including vogue?), Cameron diaz, Chole sevigny, Sienna miller are to name but a few of this woman's dedicated followers of fashion...the beauty that is Luella!!

Luella ready-to-wear collection 2008.

Bagrew up in the town Stratford-upon-Avon ,London to study fashion journalism at Central St. Martin's College of Art and Design.She entered the fashion industry as a journalist, writing for Vogue, The Face, and Dazed & Confused.

Just two rando's in the crowd at her ready-to-wear Collection 2008.

Effortlessly cool Luella Bartley traded in her Journalistic mind for a needle and thread and decided to take the reins herself, resulting in the whimsical, floaty and edgy label Luella back in 1999. With her first collection entitled "Daddy, I want a Pony" which she showcased at a friend’s apartment. A year later, she was awarded Britain’s Young Designer of the Year award.
Her second show was entitled "Daddy, who were the Clash?" in 2000

No suprise there then that shes getting inspiration from music so??

After six and a half years based in New York. She opened her first store, in London's Brook Street in 2004.
She creates many ready-to wear collections, and if u flick though the collections you will be so suprised that all her designs look so familar???...her work has filtered down into the High street (delighted!) with cardigans, high waisted skirts, pasily prints, pretty dresses which you will find in the likes of topshop, urban outfitters etc...YYYEaaaaii for us!

Luella ready-to-wear spring 2008

She said of her 2008 collection "It was about Thora Birch in Ghost World. A bit geeky and cartoonish," ......all her clothes actually really remind me of the newish show "gossip Girl" , a mix of high fashion, geek and chic!

This is definetly always a newness and novelty feeling to her clothes and collections alike, there is so much more we're going to see for this lady and her fair beautiful clothes!
