fashion show

Friday the thirteenth was a day of fun, fashion, bubbly and macarons at Ruban Rouge!
My 3 lovely Dedicated Friends/Models for the Night did a fantastic job showing of the chic and glamorous SS12 collection! My wonderful helper Wendy also worked her magic in making all the lovely ladies feel at Home :) !!
Here are some pictures for the ones who have not had a chance to make it - but do not worry, there are many other events to come .... :)

fashion olympics

the long anticipated Olympic games are just round the corner - are you going to watch? are you actually going?
this year the British Olympic & Paralympic teams' gear has been designed by successful British Designer Stella McCartney. As the pride of the British fashion industry  - she was the perfect fit to design the 2012 Olympic Uniforms as she came up with a new fashionably sporty way to stretch that Union Jack.
This was surely a bit of a challenge for the famous Brit - working with lycra instead of the gorgeous eco fabric she usually chooses....
Just for that - i might actually watch the games... it will just like a sporty fashion show! :)

working all week and a lot to do at the week end?
you enjoy nothing more than just the commpnay of your friends whislt you are shopping?
think after hours, a few glasses of bubbly, nibbles... and just the company of your friends... can it get better than that?
just email chloe@rubanrouge.co.uk to book :)

discover NIU

I discovered Italian fashion Brand NIU in Paris a year ago. the gorgeous mix of colours and fabrics were beautiful and so attractive. the winter collection was a hit here at Ruban Rouge, thanks to classic shaped dress, fitted waterfall cardis and quirky spotted creations...
the summer collection will hit the boutique in February only - but trust me it is worth waiting for!
inspired by Africa: the prints & colours, silk & linen... la creme de la creme!! :)
