Haute Hippie Pop up shop



For sexy, sophisticated basics and chic separates that offer a designer aesthetic at an accessible price point,(maybe not mine though) this is Hautehippies ethos, plus a nod to Glam boho chic from YSL! Discovered the brand on my way up to the office in Covent Garden.
This American label has a pop up shop till the end of October at the St Martins Lane hotel. Most of the Cotton pieces are made in America and the sequin tops are made in India,apparently sweat labour free. But the ones that I would wear are the Alpaca knitwear pieces hand knitted by a cooperative of ladies who sign their name on each piece. Pricing starts at £1495, dear I know, but they really are so amazing. Never seen Alpaca worked this way. Definitely worth popping in for a gawp!!!
