Juliette Hogan’s fall collection was hands-down one of my favorites at New Zealand Fashion Week. As soon as I saw thumbnails of the runway photos I got excited and tried to track them down, but runway photos never do justice to good collections, and this one was extra good and deserved a proper post full of proper lookbook pictures. The number one reason I like it? It makes me think of the Mitford sisters, which might be just because I’m reading Debo’s memoirs right now. There’s a lot of the ’30s and ’40s in these clothes . . . slinky ’30s style party dresses with art deco details and flutter sleeves, ’40s-ish tea dresses, tailored blazers, and Debo Mitford-goes-hunting knit cardigans and sweaters. I also love how light and cheerful the collection is, considering that it’s a winter one. Mind you, I’m only showing my favorites, which usually tend to be light and cheerful (the collection is called “Bitter Sweet Memories” but I mostly love the sweet). There are lots of great coats and pants in the collection, but I guess I gravitate towards traditional Juliette Hogan pastels and pleats and the kind of clothes that have made me a big fan over the last few years.

What a dreamy lookbook! (Go NZ!) I am obsessive over the floral print; it’s so gorgeous! x

The collar shapes are stunning. That white dress with the black collar, and the floral pleated skirt are gorgeous.
Looks like just the kind of thing Silent Sundays should be carrying…
