The Felder Felder show was one of the last of a long day of shows, so it was a pleasant surprise and a great pick me up when they held a little party beforehand. Your enthusiasm tends to wane after all that queuing and rushing about between venues, but presented with a Baileys cocktail I was instantly energised.

As one of the sponsors for the show, Baileys and the designer twins (Annette and Daniela) created a special cocktail called ‘Baileys and Felder Felder Duet cocktail’ – see below for the recipe.

Inspiration came from finding beauty in unexpected places. |

The broken butterfly wing is also shown as delicate chiffon embellishments on sheer sleeves and skirts. |
 |

|
Another print was a unique abstract palette of scorched and ruined pictures taken by an old Polaroid. |
 |
 |
|
Trousers were of loose sheer georgette fabric and worn over backless halter neck playsuits. |
 |
 |
|
The chiffon fabric fluttered lightly whilst thin soft leather and suede tailored pieces kept the collection anchored. Here shown as a midnight blue textured patchwork jacket with a basket embossed leather mini. |
 |
|
|
Suede was super soft and light. Here shown as a pale peach jacket with draped shawl lapel teamed with the cigarette pant and sheer chiffon blouse. |
 |
|
|
The main colour palette was soft and muted with stronger accents of classic black and a splash of deep aqua blue for that carefree holiday mood. |

And no girl should be without a Bailey’s bottle holster! This unique bag is the beginning of the partnership of the Felder Felder for Baileys accessory. The designer duo has been appointed Style Consultants to Baileys as part of the new Baileys ‘Cream with Spirit’.

And as promised here is the recipe for that designer cocktail. Baileys & Felder Felder duet Cocktail – a modern twist on a classic drink. Add 50ml chilled Baileys to a frozen cocktail glass. In a whipped cream siphon add 1/3 espresso, 1/3 sugar syrup, 1/3 whipping cream and charge with two cartridges to create a foam. Add a layer of the frothy coffee foam across the surface of the Baileys from the siphon. Decorate with a few coffee beans. http://www.baileys.com/Gateway/ |
