London designer, Nancy Parker and Los Angeles designer, Geren Lockhart have brought their talents together to bring to you their new collection, Currer Bell. Geren started her career taking on work as an ad executive in Manhattan where she learned to juggle both her job and school during her studies in Parsons’ Fashion Design program. Taking inspiration from her travel experiences and the art she had been inspired by in various locations around the world, Geren launched Ford. The line was a success both on and off the runway. Nancy Parker was no slacker either. Her strong drive to succeed led her to establish her self entitled line, Nancy Parker Studio Ltd and since the launch of it she has risen to the top of the fashion market. Today, her company creates prints for over 2500 customers worldwide including Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren, St John, Etro, Escada, Moschino, J Crew, Topshop and ASOS. Wondering where the name came from? Currer Bell is a pseudonym of English novelist and poet, Charlotte Bronte. Taking glamorous inspiration from Nancy and Geren’s home towns of London and LA, Currer Bell establishes itself as an intelligent ready-to-wear collection that combines high with low, old with new and casual, all while maintaining that value and quality wearers love. The company name represents life’s female protagonist, having it”s products geared towards the modern independent woman who lives for timeless and intelligent fashion, which we can all relate to in some sense. The color palette of the fall collection includes many deep earthy tones- the ideal feel for the season. These pieces are definitely not for going to mall in ladies, but wear them to work or a night out on the town and you’ll be the center of attention. Currer Bell has found the perfect balance between sophistication and fun, making them a brand that should be kept a close eye on by fashionistas everywhere.
