If like me, lounging rather than donning your athleisure is your preferred activity in January, look no further than this fabulous collection from LongstaffLongstaff. A luxury brand, sourced and manufactured in Britain, includes silk robes, tunics, pjs and camisoles in 4 different stories – original, hand-printed designs.
Designer, Sophie, has both Russian and British lineage and the brand is called after her paternal grandmother, one of 7 sisters who each had the middle name, as well as the surname, Longstaff. This British eccentricity has struck a chord with Sophie, who captivated and inspired by the stories of elegant parties, wild adventures and handsome suitors of the 20s and 30s, has created a range inspired by fresh, vibrant colours and highly decorative patterns used by Ivan Bilibin and costume designs of Leon Bakst.
