Rodnik

From Vogue:


IT'S A SHAWL THING

PROOF, as if it were needed, that Rodnik is one of London's most exciting new labels is the fact that one of its signature shawls and both its designers were wrapped around Sienna Miller at the Baftas. Having sold out of Browns almost as soon as they arrived, the stunning shawls and scarves – now featuring silk hems that tie behind the back or glittering finishes on lightly stitched sleeves over each shoulder – are now as hot property in Berlin and Hamburg as they are in London. And the Rodnik boys – who famously played up to their reputation for eccentricity by carrying miniature pink parasols everywhere they went during London Fashion Week – are feeling even more ambition for next season...

These shawls look nice but I don't like the styling of these images. Looks like they'll make the big time being sponsored by Browns and Sienna......

 

[Hanne]

they look like deluxe versions of shawls you can buy all over Copenhagen for 400DKr = about 35£

the styling is horrible but the shawls are not that bad
and of course.. Browns is NOT what it used to be right?

btw, a friend designer makes some cute transparent handknit 'blouses' like those shawls posted here they are incredibly warm...

thanks for the topic helena

 

[helena]

my pleasure lena.

mmm Browns, well I still like to go there for a look. But I think it seems to me (to use a magazine analogy) for people who read Harpers Bazaar rather than people who read Purple magazine. If that makes sense. I can't knock it too much I suppose - Browns Focus is good & I think Mrs Burnstein is tres chic!

 

[Lena]

i find browns much less 'edgy' than it used to be when i was living in London..
and yes, it certainly is a Bazaar not a purple kind of shop, and that's including their Focus department

 

[marrimoda]

oh my goodness the styling is really off-putting.
the shawls are nice...but it took a minute to realise it after having my senses turned off by the combinations of hosiery, jewelry, accessories and clothes. geez.

 

[Spacemiu]

they are cute, the photo styling is terrible.

 

[softgrey]

well..i agree with everyone about the styling of course...

i'd like a blouse like that lena...i think my grandmother used to have a shawl like that...i wonder if my mom has it...

i wonder what the sienna miller connection is...these boy sare definitely moving in the 'right' circles...as helena pointed out...thanks for the topic...look how good you've become at posting images...

Tack on Scarlett and Angelina, now. Give these boys some time... I foresee this name becoming bigger in the coming years.

american elle did a bit on them a couple issues ago(another to go with your Bazaar equation,helena )--missed this thread though. the pieces are okay,I suppose. nothing extraordinary.

as for Browns,I'm with helena there--Focus seems much better to me. The main store is a bit more grown-up,for lack of a better term.

 

[Erin]

^ W had a bit on them, as well... a couple of pages worth...
