Indie Intern Birthday Wishlist

Edited by

Meet our newest indie intern, we call her Social Media Sara. Today was her very first day and also her birthday! She moved to Manhattan on Saturday all the way from Michigan AND she turned 21 today. It’s a good day to be Social Media Sara. We welcomed her and sang her birthday in with itty bitty cupcakes and a bag full o’ swag. But Sara still wanted more, and so she picked out 10 items that would make her birthday all the sweeter.

Get High and Cutout Early

Edited by

Funky chunky platforms and heels make hearts beat faster. This we know. You probably already got a pair of flatforms and mile highers, but we’re finding some details that enhance the uppity spring feeling of this foot high trend. Specifically: linear cutouts. They add length, making your legs seem longer, and the peekaboo effect is scandalously sexy. Neutral, black or bright, it works. Today is 4/20. Get high [shoes].

The company was started in 1981 with Karen Millen and Kevin Stanford selling plain white shirts to friends. By 1983, the pair had opened a boutique in Kent. By 2009, the brand became part of Aurora Fashions which owns other brands in the UK. Today the brand is under the Creative Director Gemma Metheringham who oversees a team of twelve designers that work solely on the label’s ready to wear, accessories and lingerie collections.

The team produces two main collections and two transitional collections each season – within each collection are eight stories that cover day, work, occasion and week-end. Everything in the collections is designed in-house from the lace used in the label’s famed eveningwear to the embossed hardware on the statement bags. In-house pattern cutters complete the team and help to perfect the flattering fit for which the brand is famed.
