2020 is all about sustainable fashion and the choices we make when purchasing bespoke fashion. For several years now knitwear designer Mihaela Markovic.  has adapted to the demand for her customers in creating niche items that will last a long time and not date.

I have been wearing knitwear from the brand Clothes That My Mother Wore for many years.  Their brand ethics are strong when it comes to sustainable fashion.

Theses quality cardigans will last a lifetime. They take on average six weeks to make.

Whilst reviewing the Strand Palace Hotel in London, I decided to showcase the collection in the hotel dining area. To give examples of how elegant and chic the knitwear cardigans look.

Gold YVL Jewellery

That is what these elegant cardigans are all about. They ooze a timeless message. It is why my accessories are from YVL jewellery collection of the 1980s. These vintage pieces are coated in 22crt gold. They have withstood the test of time because they are quality.

My favourite cardigan is the oversized chunky piece. This chunky cardigan is like live art. Its complexity of knitwear skill is beautiful.

As art, I placed it at the bar whilst drinking champagne. At hotel bars, everyone is watching what people are wearing.

It is very niche to see a gold cardigan been created like this. It is so classy and when at any five-star hotel. An item like this has to be showcased.
