I was instantly drawn to Jessie Hill's latest collection; probably because it was influenced by Blade Runner, a film I've always been a fan of. The garments in the collection have a subtle androgyny, more based upon the 80s cyberpunk genre than the clothing in the film itself; aside from some 'Rachael' style puffed sleeves and frilled-out collars. The dresses are highly wearable, made from fabrics like hand-printed silks and Japanese microfibre cottons.
A series of hand-crafted shoes compliment the collection perfectly; from cute flats in soft, 80s inspired patterns, to the lace-up platforms in a variety of colours and styles.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels. She says: Vintage will never go out of style We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
