Celia Birtwell for Topshop: The Verdict
If we were on speaking terms with Topshop at the moment, I don’t really know what we’d say to it about the new Celia Birtwell capsule collection. What can you say? I mean, it’s nice and all – but "nice" is such a blah word when it comes to fashion, isn’t it. And also? I’m not even sure the green blouse can be called "nice". Moving along…
This isn’t a bad collection, by any means. I like the 70s vibe of the dress on the left – probably wouldn’t rush out and buy it (especially not for £60), but I like it all the same. The dress in the middle – like it too. The blouse? Not so much, really. All in all, no strong feelings about this one over here. I suspect that’s not a good thing…
