The Harris Reed x Missoma collection is now available at Selfridges Manchester and Missoma online! Returning from London Fashion Week as one of the most talked-about designers, Harris Reed is entering into the jewellery space in collaboration with London-based brand, Missoma. Spotted during the celebrated Harris Reed show, pieces from the collection were incorporated into the elaborate couture fantasy.

Launching this month, the 49-piece demi-fine collection and 15-piece fine capsule reconsiders Gothic heirlooms and vintage trinkets to become pieces of fluidity and inclusivity. As a gender-fluid fashion designer, Reed wanted to create a collection inspired for everyone. Initially, this idea manifested itself in the dual-gender butterfly – a symbol of fluidity, rebirth, and freedom. The demi-fine pieces are crafted from recycled sterling silver, recycled 18ct gold vermeil and gold plating. The collection’s fine jewellery is refined in 14ct solid recycled gold, blue sapphire and conflict-free white and black diamonds.

​”This is my way of being able to give everyone a little bit of the Harris Reed fantasy”, Harris Reed.

The opulence and excitement present in Harris Reed’s designs transfer to the beautiful collection. Heavy stones, delicate pearls, mindful details, fluidity, symbolism and alluring simplicity are sprinkled across the collection. The array of styles and designs across earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets ensures there is a product for everyone which can be easily worn as part of an abundance of heavy, layered pieces, or worn more delicately as an individual, single piece.

Missoma’s CEO and creative director, Marisa Hordern, explains ‘this collection is all about acceptance and inclusivity through our deeply symbolic pieces, given the romantic opulence and gothic chic that comes with all things Harris.’ Harris Reed also explains his role in making the collection a more accessible aspect of dreamy couture gowns: ‘as a designer who mostly works with demi-couture and VIP clients, not everyone can buy a Harris Reed gown. But they can have a Harris Reed x Missoma gold necklace or ring to keep for years and years to come. This is my way of being able to give everyone a little bit of the Harris Reed fantasy.’

The post Just A Little Bit Of ‘Harris Reed Fantasy’ With Missoma’s New Collection appeared first on Voir Fashion.

The fresh pastel look is a statement waiting to happen, whether it be from a matching crisp two-piece suite to an oversized t-shirt and some joggers; a splash of pastel can transform your ‘kitchen outfit’ to a whole new level. The palette itself is very appealing to the eye, it goes unnoticed as it lures you in. It’s one of those things that you either love it or you are drawn to it; there is no in-between!

Look 1:

Bralet: Pretty Little Thing Lilac Slinky Triangle Bralet (£8)

Skirt: Pretty Little Thing Lilac Slinky Split Back Maxi Skirt (£15)

Jacket: Nasty Gal In It to Fringe It Oversized Denim Jacket (£65)

Boots: Isabel Marant Duerto Texan ankle boots (£765)

Sunglasses: Gucci Oversized square pearlescent-acetate sunglasses (£355)

The pastel palette offers a range of soothing tones from lilac, baby blue to a mint green that can be depicted through not only garments but also via trainers, eye shadows, bags and many more to enhance your fit.

It can be seen that the pastel trend is highly influenced by Harajuku fashion originated in Japan; as it is bold and visually attractive. Although it is commonly associated with layering and standing out from the crowd, the Harajuku influence of pastel hues have unlocked a trail for many fashion designers and brands, that have transformed garments to portray less is more through pastel.

Look 2:

Suit: River Island Petite pink pinstripe double breasted blazer (£65)

Shoes: Converse Runstar Hike, White Black Gum (£89.99)

Sunglasses: Miu Miu Eyewear La Mondaine oversized-frame sunglasses (£250)

Card Holder: Miu Miu Leather Credit Card Holder (£180)

Needless to say, Nike has set high expectations for future pastel infused garments, having created the Nike mini metallic swoosh oversized pastel colour block hoodie and joggers. Its sell-out has made streetwear enthusiasts hunt for similar apparels, due to reseller prices being over the top. It can be perceived that this co-ord broke boundaries and opened a trend for colour blocking with a streetwear infused twist. To top the fit, Nike had also created the Air Force 1 Shadow trainers in pastel that had generated a gateway for the sneaker community as well.

Look 3:

Top: Fiorucci Flying Cherub T-Shirt Dress Green (£100)

Shorts: For Love & Lemons Smythe Hot Short (£150)

Hat: Burberry reversible leopard print bucket hat (£310)

Shoes: Juicy Couture logo chunky flatform sandals in pink (£89)

Necklace: Missoma Lucy Williams Gold t bar chunky chain necklace (£295)

Initially, more and more designers have interpreted the pastel trend throughout the years, such as the angel brand Fiorucci. This has made the fast-fashion sector drawn to the idea of pastel, by making the viral dynamic more accessible to the fashion sector. These can be found on online retailers such as Pretty Little Thing. However, if you are looking for original pastel garments head over to eBay to find a more vintage look.

Its lively attraction has set a reoccurrence in the fashion industry throughout spring and summer; it will definitely be back again next year with no hesitation. Its unique palette has submerged and adapted across styles such as tie-dye and loungewear this season, we can only look forward to what is in store for us next!

Top: 4th + Reckless buckle detail crop top (£22)

Skirt: Revolve Christi Mini Skirt (£129)
