Inspiration

Inspiration is all around – on celebrities and catwalks, on the street, in art, music, culture, nature and small everyday things.

In the same way that you express your personality through fashion, so too do our designers express what inspires them through the clothes they create.



Review design director Jayne Ellis talks about what inspires her designs

poppy

This intensely-coloured flower has a very classic, retro, feel when applied to a print.

napkin

I often get my best ideas on the weekend, drinking a coffee and watching the world go by... which inspires me to start sketching then and there on my napkin.

diamonds

Review clothes are designed to make a girl feel gorgeous, elegant and confident... much the same way as the sparkly diamonds (a girl's best friend) do. Diamonds would be a perfect accessory for most of Review's clothes... but if you can't have the real thing, fake it with a dress ring!

beads

Our design offices are spilling over with a mixture of beads, lace, ribbon and buttons, so I can always find something to give each item unique detailing.

Often inspiration is drawn from the past.

Concertina folds fall so beautifully from the figure.
