This Summer ' Must Have's...

As Summer approaches there are a few  ‘ must haves’ that are needed in your Summer beach bag. Now the ultimate must have accessory is sunglasses – on the beach or the day after these are your most essential item.

Fringes - The Fringe look will be huge this season and the forthcoming seasons, the style adds an extra dimension and should be dressed with a simple and more elegant design.

Collection: The 1950-Sixty, Shard and Tiger Claw collection work well with the fringe trend www.logoandgalago.com

Bloc Colour - This season there has been an overwhelming use of luxury fabrics, modern dimensional techniques and bloc colour. These styles command dimensional pieces and work well with accessories from the Number 8 and Imperial Collection.

Embroidery and Embellishment - is one of the key developments that has taken all the runways by storm. Beads, sequins and sparkles have all be sewn into designs to add a more detailed level of design to pieces. These designs work well with the L&G Spice Trail and Exotic Glam collections.

New York Style – Geometric, layering and abstract large shapes were a key look in New York with Victoria Beckham leading the way. This look works well with more textural designs. The L&G 1950 Sixty, Mini Ruffles, Fine Collections will add another element to the look.
