Sophia and Matt design the fabrics and the styles of a range of handbags, coin purses, changing bags, make up and washbags, and tavel card holders. Patterns feautres spots, dots, stripes and florals in pvc coated cotton fabric.

The Boutique Gallery at Jaeger

The Boutique Gallery at Jaeger opened last month; I popped down on Friday to take a look at what they've got in store. As well as their own range of Boutique clothing, Jaeger have gathered together a fabulous selection of British designed accessories.
The Boutique Gallery is currently located on the first floor of their Regent Street store, but I think this fine selection of British designer-makers complement Jaeger's own main collection so well they should relocate it to the ground floor!

Nicholas King - for the greatest chunky bangles: jewellery featuring fabrics and trinkets encased in resin.

Angel Jackson handbags - oooo what a fabulous quilted tote bag. Angel Jackson's bags and purses are made in Bali in their own factory.  Although my primary focus in this blog is on UK-made products, I love this brand for their committment to creating a good working environment for their employees through a production system which they control, good craftsmanship and, of course, fantastic design.

Noble Isle - bath and beauty products that draw inspriration from the plants and landscapes of the British Isles. Relax in a bath with their Lightning Oak bath gel, while reading 'To Autumn' by Yeats.

Age of Reason - designer of my favourite punk owl scarf. SS13 scarves feature pirate queens, daisy-chain-threading punks, and the very wearable Over & Over electric coral scarf seen far right of picture below. At the back of the store are the very covetable Wilbur & Gussie clutches and bags.

Cabinet - previously blogged about here - glittering treats, rosey-gold metals, sparkling jewels, something to wear when you party in West Egg.

Mercy Delta scarves - silks and fine modal digitally printed
