The design journey

From pencil to the London runway.

Every Cedar Rose piece starts as a line on paper. Follow one idea all the way - sketch, cloth, fitting, rail - to the catwalk at London Fashion Week.

The training ground - Cedar Rose by Toni Darroch where it all began

The training ground

Ten years of live television taught Toni what no fashion school can: how a design makes someone fall in love. Stamps By Me went from the UK to HSN in America and QVC in Germany - an arts brand on the world’s biggest shopping channels.

The pencil - Cedar Rose by Toni Darroch deep hem · sculpted pleats

The pencil

It starts with a sketchbook. The Audrey silhouette, the deep hem, the pockets, the pleats - drawn, rubbed out and drawn again until the line is right.

The cloth - Cedar Rose by Toni Darroch ivory · sand · taupe · mushroom

The cloth

Thousands of fabrics, one hero. Toni touches, scrunches and drapes every cloth - 50 times, 500 times - because the luxury should be in the garment itself.

The atelier - Cedar Rose by Toni Darroch from sketchbook to hanger

The atelier

Sketch becomes pattern, pattern becomes toile. Fittings, changes, doubts - and the moment a garment becomes exactly what she hoped it would be.

The rail - Cedar Rose by Toni Darroch look 1 of 15

The rail

Fifteen looks. Fifteen stories. One rail. Months of work zipped into garment bags the night before the show.

London Fashion Week SS27

The London runway

London Fashion Week, SS27. The Audrey woman walks. A study in structure, movement and femininity - timeless, but never predictable.

The collection

And then, the Audrey woman.
