Last week I was lucky enough to have a preview of the new designer collaboration coming to Dorothy Perkins by one of my favourite designers Olivia Rubin, and I loved everything about it, and I am hoping everyone is as excited as me to see it in stores from today.
If like me you are having trouble deciding on what pieces to buy I have picked out my favourites, which is a lot, as I am having trouble narrowing down my must buys:
Dresses:
The dresses were always going to be amazing and I love the mix of prints, jersey, and chiffon and these three I think I can’t live without, especially the grey bird peplum dress in the middle I am thinking that would be perfect for a summer wedding.
(L-R) Pink bird wrap dress, £45; Grey bird peplum dress, £49; and Black wrap dress, £35.
Tops:
Peplums, wraps, cut-outs, hanky hems, and of course vibrant colours and prints, the separates from this collection are very strong. I think my favourite has to be the asymmetric grey bird print chiffon overlay, how adorable it that, and great value I think at £28.
(L-R) Grey bird asymmetric top, £28; Pink bird peplum top, £30; and Bird stripe t-shirt, £25.
Maxis:
It wouldn’t be an Olivia Rubin collection without maxi dresses and these are two beauties, they both have details that I can’t decide between the two. Is it wrong that I am selling it to myself on the fact that the jersey one can be a day dress and the bird print would work for a summer party/wedding???
(L-R) Pink bird maxi dress, £45; and Black jersey maxi dress, £45.
Bikinis:
Coming in June are Olivia’s first swimwear pieces and they are insane, I love the two different styles as well as the fab gold shell print, and there is always a swimsuit that I think I will need to track down.
Will you be buying any of Olivia’s first collection for Dorothy Perkins? Let me know I think I need help narrowing down my choices otherwise my bank balance might not be too healthy!!!
