Markus Lupfer Sails into Spring

Markus Lupfer at Harvey Nichols

London-based designer, Markus Lupfer has definitely established himself as the go-to-guy for effortlessly cool looks. Acclaimed for his exceptional knitwear and inspired approach to jersey tailoring, he always manages to create clothes that are both cute and edgy. His quirky approach breathes new life in to classic wearable pieces, giving his collections a broad appeal that strikes a balance with women who don't want to compromise comfort for style.

His innovative use of print and experimentation with embroidery and graphic embellishment has earned him a devoted celebrity following including, Florence Welch, Daisy Lowe and Alexa Chung.

More recently, we have been lusting over his corset printed t-shirts, sequin jumpers and 'Poetry and Chaos' slogan dresses. But for this S/S '10 Lupfer takes on a more nautical feel, describing the collection as "sexy, transitional and modern." Inspired by sailor party girls, key looks for the season include a cropped striped jacket with statement gold buttons, the jersey 'Allegra' dress and body-con pieces with hook and eye detailing. 

Jersey Allegra Dress, £230

Markus Lupfer is available in Harvey Nichols London, Leeds, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Dublin and in our online shop.

This vision has been elegantly translated into a youthful, sporty, yet feminine Spring/Summer collection perfect for the modern, sophisticated woman.

The chic colour palette of neutral hues such as khaki and white, set the scene with accents of sherbet orange, sunshine yellow and gold metallic. With the focus on effortless and stylish dressing, key pieces from the collection include cute day dresses, practical and luxurious tops that can be tucked into skirts and casual shorts and strapless dresses perfect for summer nights out! Denim is also a strong look within the collection where proportions are played with and loose cropped jeans are teamed with fitted white bustiers.

Representing fashion, value and luxury ready to wear, Elie Tahari is the perfect place to turn to when you need to update your look for the new season and with this versatile spring collection you will add plenty of new favourites to your capsule wardrobe!
