Because I fucking love indigo. There I said it.

I have always been a big fan of Stephen Kenn and his inheritance collection – I love his uniquely vintage and rugged military style. But now he has teamed up with Simon Miller who is has a denim brand for a new collection. With this in mind, the sofas are upholstered with canvas that’s been hand-dipped in indigo five times. They washed the canvas with vinegar, to lock in the deep indigo colour before turning them into covers and cushion cases. Warning: usually I warn people not to sit on white sofas in dark denim but this time I warn you against sitting on this sofa in your white briefs (why briefs? because men shouldn’t own white pants)

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
