Michelle Mason

[Arksiel]

Please excuse if there is already a thread on this designer, but I did two searches and could not locate one!

Ever since I saw a jacket that she made worn by Nicole Richie, I've been searching for information on this designer. I love almost everything I've seen of hers so far, and thought she deserved a thread of her own. So I did a little leg work and came up with some pictures!

apparantly she did shoes (very limited edition) but I haven't been able to locate any pictures.... same goes for her spring and summer collection.

if anyone can add anything to this, I would greatly appreciate it!
thanks

I think her clothes really received "publicity" when Nicole Richie started appearing in some of her pieces.

I have googled her for some time too, but all I can add on is that her collections are available online at:

1. http://www.thefashionpulse.com
2. http://www.blaec.com
3. http://www.p45.com
4. http://www.sloaneboutique.com

Anymore info about her is welcome, I'll like to read more about her too!

I like her , she makes nice wearable things.
She used to be an asstant to Richard Tyler, and I think her clothes are fairly similare in spirit, sort of understated, elegant, modern but classic.

oh yay! thanks for the extras, people. I was thinking no one would reply...and it looks like other people do love her as well. thanks for the extra information, everyone!

 

[Arksiel]

'New' information on her stuff, I haven't been around much lately but still like her stuff and was hoping someone had posted more!

Can anyone find pictures of s/s 06 or F/W 06/07? I was not able to find anything, the results google gave me were mostly older. The one link that looked successful kept timing out on me.

Thanks!

I don't remember if this is by Michelle Mason or Elisa Jiminez, because Melissa Auf der Maur wore many of their designs around 1999-2000, and I loved them. It's cool that Nicole Richie is wearing Mason's stuff because I like her style.

I looked at Mason's work when I went to New York in 1999 and at the time it was not wareable for anyone who had visible fat, now however they look more wearable.
