London Fashion Week S/S 2011 - Sass and Bide

Australian home grown talent Sass and Bide, recently featured their new spring/summer 2011 collection at London Fashion Week.  I admit, not since their 'Rainbows for Kate' collection have I bought one of their pieces.  I've always been a Sass and Bide follower but this was the first time in a while, I was excited to see their new collection titled 'Papa Sucre'!  It was a little less edgy and predictable and a little more feminine, soft, flattering and pastel.  However, it still did incorporate signature Sass and Bide..now that's the type of collection I like to see!  Apparently the girls have gone a little 'Zen' which lead them into a new direction for their collection.  Whatever the reason I like it!
I have to mention how amazing the hair for the collection was... An Aussie creation by hairstylist Renya Xydis of course!  The best way to explain it?.... A messy up-style, with two reverse up braids ending in a messy up-knot, bun.  Amazing!!
