Shini of Park and Cube popped in to our UK showroom, Robinson Pfeffer, to take a gander in fashion house heaven and give us a look at what goes on inside.

O for Oprah Magazine

Obakki — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 22:04:55 +0000

Our powerhouse Pleated Center-Seam Dress* (available in Black and Charcoal) is featured in the August 2010 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine. O put the spotlight on nine women who have mastered both power and style. Julie Greenwald, cochairman (or cochairwoman, should we say) and COO of Atlantic Records says:

“Monday to Thursday, my outfits need to transition. This sexy gray dress is the kind of piece that can take me from the boardroom to the ‘dirty little rock clubs’ where I check out bands.”

Available on newsstands today.

*Was $320, now on sale for $224. There’s only a handful left. Truly. Get yours today.

Heads up for Fall: The Oprah dress is back with a sexy sleeveless look (available in Black & Charcoal). Now accepting pre-orders- post a comment to get your’s before the rest. Fall / Winter 2010 coming soon in August.

You Better Recognise!

Obakki — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 16:49:16 +0000

Well known for her theatrical sense of fashion and sultry voice, British singer-songwriter and actress Paloma Faith poses for the cover of Recognise Magazine in Obakki. Think Amy Winehouse’s soulful music crossed with Gina Davis’ fiery beauty, add a touch of burlesque-hollywood glam and you’ve got Paloma.

Paloma is seen on the cover wearing our SS10 best selling Juno dress (now available in Dark Grey and Cement). Already sold out once before, it’s been flying off our racks so fast we’ve made more just for you. Giving you a little teaser of what’s to come for Fall, Paloma wears our leather band Maxi dress. To get a sneak peek, check out our Fall / Winter Fashion Show photos on our blog and on Facebook.

Catch a behind-the-scenes video of Paloma’s hit “Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful” below.
