For christmas..

santa gave me Luella's Guide to English Style.. what excited me about this present was the illustrations and photos that mapped out just how cool we English are. The illustrations were the work of Dan Laidler and Zoe Taylor.


Untitled, 1996. Dan Laidler.

Swimmer, 2009. Zoe Taylor.


Jane Ormsby-Gore. An illustration from the book.


"My aim is simply to dig up the roots of and, more importantly, show my unerring appreciation and devotion to those contrived subtleties and that blatant contrariness that makes British women so staggeringly adept in the art of expression through style," Luella.
