Sponsor Spotlight: Make Me a Film Noir Femme Fatale
August 26, 2010Designer Spotlight – Lena Hoschek Autumn Winter 2010
August 31, 2010I have an exciting little preview for you today!
Back in June I filmed a little behind the scenes video of Lady K Loves shooting her new Autumn Winter pieces.
Well, it’s now nearly launch time and I have a proper exclusive sneak peek of the new pieces just for you lovely Retro Chicks.
At the bottom you’ll also find details of how you can pre order to get your perfectly manicured paws on the new pieces before anyone else.
Josephine Coat
The Josephine coat is made of lux faux fur. This beauty will add glamour to any outfit. Keeping with the more 40’s feel of this season, this jacket features full sleeves with a flare and is cut to fall beautifully at the back and front with folds of fabric.
Available in black and cream £90
Oh Gosh! Skirt
Oh Gosh! Skirt is such a flirty little number, based on our ever popular pencil skirt we’ve added goring to the back so as you wiggle down the street it’ll swish behind you, leaving the guys drooling and the girls envious.
Available in Black and Red (hopefully with a few more colours mid season) £35
Rosie trousers
Lady K went back and looked at some great images of ladies working in the factories during WWII and the Rosie trousers are the outcome! They fit at the waist and hang straight off your bum falling in to a wide leg. Perfect for work and play and keeping you warm, with just a little bit of spandex for comfort.
Currently available in Black £35
Also for Winter Lady K has introduced a couple of pieces of knitwear.
Annette – a great double breasted, button down, full sleeved cardigan, not only practical and warm but also extremely flattering and chic, in naughtical navy – £65
Elsie – based on a 40’s pattern, we lengthened the sleeves (there’s no make do here….) in charcoal. – £60
To make sure you get a chance to get your pre orders in before the new pieces are launched to the public you need to visit the Lady K Loves website and sign up for the newsletter on the front page, details of pre ordering should be out in the next week or so.
Remember, Lady K also makes pieces to order for a small charge if your measurements are off the standard chart. I’m already anticipating the arrival of my very own Oh Gosh! Skirt made to fit my distinctly vintage waist to hip ratio!

Ooh, those trousers are fabulous. Do you know if they come in a longer inseam? I’d love them for wearing with heels at work.
Lady K does do custom orders, so if the in seam is too short for you I’m sure she’d be happy to custom make them longer for you.
I’ve popped you an email with her details.
ahh some really pretty stuff. I’m a fan on facebook and absolutely adore this brand. Thanks for the preview!
ooh I love the trousers too and the skirt… I’ve had some bad experiences ordering new vintage (if that’s the correct term…) online tho, my hubby has forbidden buying without trying… we need more shops in the North West!!
ooh I just noticed a shop on chalk farm road.. I know where that is! Yay!
