Welcome to Motel Clio. We wish you a pleasant stay.
As part of the
On|Off showcase at London Fashion Week, The Vinyl Factory on Marshall Street was transformed into an art deco hotel lobby, complete with a powder blue Chesterfield sofa, shaggy rugs, fringed lampshades, and a hotel porter serving fairy cakes. The guests, eccentrically dressed in
Clio Peppiatt, lingered about the lobby like characters in a murder mystery.
The themes behind
Clio Peppiatt AW16 coalesce
The Grand Budapest Hotel with
The Shining, to produce a glamorous, vintage-inspired collection, featuring faux fur coats, embroidered bomber jackets, silk pyjama suits and sequin dresses. To finish these looks, Clio has collaborated with a number of equally creative individuals: jewellery designer
Tatty Devine, for the covetable miniature suitcases; milliner
Francesco Ballestrazzi, for the berets and eyemasks; and footwear label
Streetzie, for the unbearably cute, high-heeled bunny slippers.
