CREATING WITH MAX & CO

Wearing.. Milan Max & Co Coat, Givenchy Pandora Box & Karen Walker Harvest Eyewear

A bit of a pinch myself moment that has been 10 months in the making. Last December I was approached by Italian brand Max & Co to work with them on their II Mio Cappotto (My Coat) range. The brief for the collection was 6 iconic cites represented by 6 iconic coats to match. I came in to hand illustrate all of the six iconic cities for the use on tote bags as well as on the labels of the coats themselves. So each of the coats is personalised with the city which is was designed after as well as a "This coat belongs to.. Me!"

Max & Co in my opinion does some of the best outerwear, which you may have noticed by me wearing my Pink Mohair Coat throughout Europe & at every chance I can. Today I am wearing the 'Milan' Coat which is like wearing a teddy bear. It is one of those coats that I know I will love and keep as I go grey. These six coats are timeless. My top favourites out of the collection would have to be the Milan (obviously) and the Hong Kong (I am thinking I will have to invest in this one too)

I can not thank Max & Co enough, I don't think it has hit me yet that every piece of this special collection also has a piece of me on it.
