 Nicole Farhi - London Fashion Designer - Nicole Farhi
Backed by U.K. leviathan French Connection, Farhi’s runway collections often invoke retro themes: Menswear, which she shows in Milan, recently boasted 1920’s ice-skating, curling and skiing motifs, while the women’s collection, shown in London, created a poetic, Russian-royalty vibe with lush velvets, cashmeres and alpacas in rich hues of garnet, midnight and vintage green.
Combining the old with the new, the comfortable with the tailored, Farhi’s home goods mirror her clothing’s penchant for raw fabrics, natural hues and unstructured shapes, with a few one-off antiques culled from her world travels thrown in the mix.
Now married to British playwright David Hare, Farhi is a celebrity in her own right, and an entrepreneur who has expanded her desire for comfortable, casual clothes into a lifestyle brand celebrating fashion, food and home furnishings.
