Alexandra Groover: An American Designer in London

The Shell Hooded Dress...


The Shell Shoulder Dress...

... by California native Alexandra Groover.

Groover currently lives in London, capital of the avant-garde, where she studied at Central Saint martins and trained with Alexander McQueen and Zandra Rhodes before launching her eponymous label.

She has been getting a lot of attention since January 08 (Refinery29, Diane Pernet, Montmartre Sketchbook ...) and hopefully she will be getting more because her designs truly deserve it.

Me encanta el vestido de abajo, sobretodo en blanco.

Por cierto, ya casi acabé el trabajo, en cuanto tenga un hueco te lo envío.

Saludos!
