Autumn Dressing

Autumn is my favourite season.  Often brilliant sunshine against cloudless blue skies and falling leaves in all their colourful glory.  Dressing for the weather couldn't be better,  be enveloped in sumptuous layers of silk, cashmere and wool and welcome the North wind!

     I love this shot! Its a Pauline Burrows suit and was taken by Phil Fisk in his London studio.

I was thinking 'Twin Peaks'. 

Phil, being a master of lighting, has set the scene and mood and pulled it off perfectly.

Steel grey suit in wool linen blend.
Ready to wear or bespoke.
