Beautiful Butter By Nadia

 Nadia Tarr, the quite brilliant (and self taught) designer behind the Butter by Nadia range was a dancer and choreographer in her previous career - which perhaps accounts for the beautiful flow and movement of these dresses.  'Why hasn't anyone thought of this before?' was the cry when we saw the myriad of ways the pieces can be worn, but then isn't that true of every great innovation?
The concept is simple - in both the full length and knee length dress two wide bands of fabric creating the upper part of the garment can be wrapped and draped to create halter necks, plunging necklines, strapless and backless dresses which fit the wearer like they were made for them....which infact they were.
The resulting dress is stop the traffic glamorous, so it's little wonder that Butter by Nadia is a firm favourite with some of Hollywood's fashion elite - Sarah Jessica Parker and Naomi Watts are both big fans!
The perfect holiday dress (why take five when one can be transformed so completely?!), ultra flattering and super comfortable, Butter by Nadia designs are revolutionising the fashion world - why not come and see what all the excitement is about!

Available in all four stores and online

Nougat

The Nougat collection this season is ultra feminine and seems to span history for inspiration! Ancient Greece is seen in the flattering draped silhouette of the fine jersey dresses. With a palette ranging from soft sages, browns and lilac greys to fabulous jewelled blues and violets, the look is understated and sexy. The 1950's is also an influence within the range, geometric patterned knee length skirts and sleeveless dresses are straight out of Desperate Housewives and a stunning fitted white dress is seemingly borrowed from Audrey Hepburn! Perfectly cut linen trousers teamed with beautifully embroidered vest tops are simply timeless, and complete a collection in Spirit that is perfect summer wear, romantic and beautifully feminine....very Nougat!

Sunny St Tropez

The Danish brand St Tropez proves time and again to be a firm favorite with Spirit customers, and with just a glance at the collection for summer 2011 it's easy to see why! Ultra feminine chiffon beaded dresses, softly draping silky trousers and funky tops (check out the tunic with embroidered angels wings!) in khakis, pinks and taupes sit alongside studded vest tops and fabulously fitted t shirts in mouth watering colours. Uber cool black and white photo imagery of an American Indian on horseback is printed on a fine vest, tailor made for layering throughout the summer months. St Tropez pieces are always bang on trend, super stylish and extremely competitively priced - the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe!

Great Plains

It's Autumn once again and Great Plains do not disappoint. This season they have three key areas for focus.
And they are...

Fabrics
Chunky cable knits are layered over fine jerseys and cottons. Luxurious wool and cashmere-blend coats lend warmth, while felts and tweeds add texture. Scalloped lace and satin give modern styles a vintage finish.

Silhouettes
Tulip skirts, puff shoulders and blouson sleeves create a curvy, feminine outline. Soft tailoring and draped knits are belted at the waist for an hourglass shape while ruffles and fringing give a smooth line an unexpected twist.

Prints
Watercolour florals in delectable raspberry and fuchsia mingle with contrasting charcoal greys. Bold abstract brushstrokes look fresh teamed with nautical stripes. Chocolate box purples and seaside greens and blues brighten dull days.

Great Plains is available in Devizes, Frome and Marlborough

Sandwich

This season, Sandwich focuses on a variety of modern knits with speciality stitching, draping necks and rich detailing.

Colours are dusty tones of brick red, stormy blues and sage green in combination with a neutral base of black, grey, sand, taupe and white.

Prints include graphic dots, checks, floral and leaf patterns, multi-hued hatching mixed together for a patchwork feeling, and prints inspired by urban scenery such as buildings, city lights and graphic face prints. 

The focus is on silhouettes rather than busy detailing, with long, oversized tunic tops or knee-length dresses over detailed leggings. Knit cardigans and pullovers include chunky cables, punto Milano, slub yarns and multi-colour yarns, while large cowl necks and fringe detailing give an elegant look.

Sandwich is a fantastic brand that has been with us since the doors of Spirit first opened.

Available in Devizes, Frome and Bradford On Avon.

ICHI

ICHI's autumn collection has made no attempt to hide the heavy rock influence with chains, punk-style rivets, skulls and diamante jostling with graphic prints such as bleeding hearts, wings and stars. All these super-cool details bring out the raw and rebellious biker look.

The colour scheme is dominated by black, grey and dusky blue, set off by a touch of rouge red and lime.

Worn-look jeans keep true to the racy biker theme, emphasised by sleeveless, washed out tops, military and uniform details and high-rise shoulders.

This means an exciting Autumn lies in wait, expressing speed perfect for women with loads of confidence and an appetite for life.

This fabulous collection is available in Devizes, Frome, Marlborough and Bradford On Avon stores.

Saint Tropez

For Autumn, the themes for the Saint Tropez collection are "Military Roots" and "Twisted Poetry", with inspiration from military shapes and details such as double breasted jackets and knits, shoulder straps and military buttons with "code of arms" embossments.

On the feminine side they use embroidery, lace, beads and smock details, using these details in different ways to get a new and refreshing expression in the collection.

Black and grey tones are still going strong for this season but colours like army and brown are becoming more and more important. Various tones of purple and powder create a soft contrast to the neutral earth colours and gives a beautiful harmony throughout the collection.

We currently stock Saint Tropez in all four stores, holding some fantastic core pieces for your Autumn wardrobe. Don't miss out!
