Some New Press Stuffs!!!

Imyouare...
Yo Yo Yo....
So I would Like to say that some hardcore gossip went down this weekend...but it didn't I was locked away working pretty much all weekend...which isn't very glitter fuelled (well it is kind of glitter fuelled if you walk across my floor barefoot as it all sticks to your feet!) but it's all good!
Two interesting points...I went to Hyde Park and ate some mangoes...and Rael encouraged some weirdo to come and harass us...I was then asked if I was 15?! Also...me and Charlie had a lot of malt products...ie HORLICKS AND SOREEN...and the results were weird...I encountered the worst, most vivid nightmares of my life!!!
So anyway....Just wanted to share some latest bits of press I've whipped in!!!!

Magical Project....Designers Against Aids!!!

Afternoon Twinkletoes!
So once again I've been keeping a very special project under my hat......
I have recently become involved with an amazing charity called "Designers Against Aids" (DAA) which is actively working since 2004 to raise Aids awareness through media platforms worldwide by teaming up with designers and celebrities...
I am 100% honoured to say I am part of this project and have been working on creating some extra special print designs for garment that you will be able to get your mitts on SUPER PRONTO!
DAA have worked in bringing a special collection called "Fashion Against Aids" with H&M as well as collaborating with hot designers and celebs including Rhianna, Gareth Pugh, Scissor Sisters, Bernhard Willhelm, Dita Von Teese, Jeremy Scott and Katharine Hamnett....amongst others!!!Wooo!

CLICK CLICK CLICKKKKKKK!

Saluttttt!!!!
Jeez....it is FREEZING....I put the heating on and it's too hot...I turn the heating off and it's proper chills-ville....you just cant win and there is a mystical draft that I can't decipher the origins of...ergh I don't like it!
So, anywayzzz....last night we shot my lookbook in the amazing gallery space at Beach Blanket Babylon!!Super exciting!
It was actually the first time since my show that I have properly seen the collection all together...things have been pretty crazy since Fashion Week, so when the pieces haven't been zipped up nicely in garment bags, they have been out and about at various different shoots or taken out of my hands...so it was nice to get down to creating some amazing images without the mayhem of being backstage at the show!
This particular photoshoot was actually one of the favourite ones I have ever done as it was TOTALLY cheap laughs akimbo....and I LOVED it!
We had a truely awesome team....MASSIVO thanks to Thom Will who unleashed some photo magical unicorn powers....Superstar Puffy stylist Alexis Knox....Michelle Webb for churning out some GOURMET make-up....Charlie Le Mindu AKA Toodle-Pip for creating CORKER hair in true "STREMFROMS" style (yes, it's his favourite word and replaces the word "Strepsil") ....the super HOT models Rachel and Gui who rocked the Emma Bell threads and looked 1 million% AMAZING and of course the sexy Katie and Hayley who helped us!!!



Gui and Rachel...
Yes...I cracked out some pictures as I knew the anticipation would be too much in waiting to clap your eyes on the real shots!!wooo! I'm not impressed that they're kind of fuzzy and I really hope that my camera is not on it's way out as It's covered in pretty pink rhinestones so I love it....

This is one of my all time favourite photos of Charlie and Gui...ever....it makes me laugh soooo much!!! I don't think this picture would look out of place on a channel 4 documentary.....
Yeah...there were some pretty SICK, skanky bagels thrown into the mix...I don't' understand why the vegetarian option always equates to a bit of dirty cheese and brown lettuce....nice....





And of course, as ever....some shapes were thrown...

Yep...so it was hot and I'm soooo incredibly excited to see the finished pictures...so watch this space and all shall be unleashed EL PRONTO!!!
Love and Potatoes,
Emma

Ooooooh the Notion bash was hot!!!!!!!!

ooooooooooooooooohhhh iiiiya!
So, as you know, I'm a big fan of Notion magazine....I think it's a beaut....especially now that the lovely Alexis Knox has whipped in and become fashion editor!woooo WELL DONE KNOXY!
So Friday evening saw the launch of issue 38 with guest Esser...it was a right old shindig!I have been revelling in hermitville for the past few months so I was up for the unleashment! Also...when I spotted my ever favourite, "RELENTLESS" were sponsoring the bash....I was even more excited!!!!
Imagine my delight when....get this....I made the amazing discovery that there is actually a 4TH VARIETY?!?!As if?!!?I mean...as if Inferno wasn't the pinnacle discovery...there is actually another flavour of the "Juiced" version.....BERRY FLAVOUR! Yes please! It was EXQUISITE....I was hysterical!!! It has also pipped the "Tropical Juiced" to the post in terms of being my favourite!! It was scrumptious!!!

Yes...It was quite an extravaganza with Esser even abandoning the stage and whipping out an impromptu sesh throwing out the beats AL FRESCO!!!

Love and Lambrini and stuff,

The Big Grand Build-up....

Oooh IIIIIIYYYAAA!!!
So...what really went on in the months leading up to the unleashment of the collection!!!
I'm dedicating this one to Emma Box- who was my right hand man/woman in the run up to the show so really got to witness the majority of the ridiculousness....
Obviously there was many a ludicrous event....where to start...where to start....
As you can imagine there was very little sleep going on.....many nights there was none at all....it wasn't pretty...so to battle this we development an un-natural obsession with energy products....

Yes...the cans built up...and started to take over the room. Then...imagine my delight when I discovered that the shop around the corner stocks Thai Red Bull...now I was kind of excited in hopes of a re-run of my pre-Xmas antics in Bangkok...then again...the thought of being sick 8 times...being caught in the chaos of a street brawl...and throwing some shapes to the sound of Thai reggae with a sick-but-fit boy called Michael from Islington in tow....really wasn't going to cut the mustard in terms of getting the work done!!!
Then one day...after branching out to Somerfield as Tescos sarnies were getting boring....we found.....

YES....instant energy strips...YES PLEASE....although they weren't too amazing....
So we stuck to the Relentless...and lots of it...it's the BEST thing ever. There's a shop downstairs and we like to call the dudes Sunbeam and Gnome...Sunbeam is my favourite as he is more up for the cheap laughs....Gnome just isn't buying into it!
They must have been clapping their hands at us trotting down several times a day to clear their shelves of Relentless....we were so excited when one morning we popped in for supplies to see they had got another variety in especially for us...RELENTLESS JUICED....yes please! I definitely saw Sunbeam have a cheap smirk as I squealed with delight upon spotting this treat....only the day before had we hit up Wikipedia to discover this variety...and also learn of the myth that is Relentless Inferno.....

Another addiction accompanied all of the sewing and Relentless drinking....jam donuts from Tescos...YUM...although it wasn't so pleasant when Emma found a bit of plastic in hers (or maybe a magical piece of unicorn's horn...)at 35p a pop, you can't really complain!

This photo depicts one of my most favourite frolics of the creation of AW09.....
So....I got this really "special" mug for Christmas (my brother got the same one...bet he still has his...booo)....seeing as the door would be ringing 24/7...the trips up and down the stairs were getting out of hand....so we developed a special technique which involved the keys being lowered down on a piece of bright pink wool....to the onlooker it must have looked ludicrous.
On one particular day the wool got tangled so it was becoming a bit of a farce to wrestle the keys down to the receiver.....in the tussle MY FAVOURITE MUG took a full G FORCE tumble out of the window nearly taking out half of the road and the pedestrians.....I actually nearly killed Emma Box. It was a full blown spectacle....everyone on the bus was copping a spy...people on the other side of the road stopped to watch...there was an audience that a really shit matinee would be proud of.
In the melee, a load of chunks of ceramic had cascaded into the shop downstairs so poor old Sunbeam must have got a proper fright....he came outside kicking all the pieces back out into the street and started to laugh as he grappled for the still dangling keys....I'm glad it wasn't me trying to get the keys...the shame!
So anyway..you get the gist....for all the hard work...there was equally enough ridiculous moments....
Needless to say there was also a lot of sewing...blanket stitching and listening to Britney going!!!
Love and Flying Mugs (not saucers.)
Emma
