London shopping: Dragana Perisic

Perisic’s range of garments, jewellery and bags carry her trademark attention to detail and this season’s collection is all about ultra-feminine whimsical pieces with a tactile edge. Take the transparent black dress in the window: a collection of organza “puffs” that are delicately hand-stitched like a dark spider web – a feature that recurs throughout Perisic’s designs.

This careful craftsmanship is reflected in the amazing book-cut sculptures by artist Su Blackwell, which are currently on show (and for sale) in the shop. Blackwell literally brings books to life, with hand-cut butterflies escaping from the pages of an old book, and a forest of paper trees growing wildly from the pages of another tome.

Both designers’ creations work well together to provide a visual treat and a lot of fun. Don’t miss Perisic’s hand-stitched rope dress and her vintage-style tees with a Deco motif.
