STYLEAID 2009 Runway Photos – Empire Rose, aelkemi, Alister Yiap
I do own a few pieces from Empire Rose. It’s not often that I do have that kind of connection with designer labels. Interestingly, the stuff I own was I believe designed by Kristy Lawrence not by the new owner of Empire Rose. I say the label is keeping up with its expected look and ...
STYLEAID 2009 Runway Photos – 2Wink, Costarella and Antipodium
