Once upon a time!

I was the other day in the store and this cool girl comes in and tells me she was going to a party and she thought on wearing a jumpsuit and i was like, "hey, i got the right thing for you", and i showed her my Des Moines knitted jumpsuit which by the way is out now in it's 2nd edition,



and also the light denim one, and she was like, "hey i really like this one but i'm not sure if denim might be a bit stiff to wear for a party". Not at all, i said, we take really good care of sourcing the best fabrics for each garment and i can asure you wearing this denim feels like you have nothing on!. Then i smiled, it's always best to smile after you've been a bit technical, you know.

She looked at me like i was alan sugar's last week fired apprentice and told me she still wasn't convinced. My "you're losing a sale" bell rang loudly so i said, Girl, i'm gonna prove you wrong and at the same time show how Marc Jacobs it's not the only designer out there who likes a stretch.




So i was like you can do this, aaand this, and most surely you can also do this and......










.... just as i was going down with dog, she told me she was convinced and she bought it and left quite quickly! God how am i like?! She also left before i could show her all you can do with my one-off cut-out tees!












Or though probably the best you can do with a tee it's chilax! have a nice day!

absolutely fabulous!


23 January 2009

This is hardcore!


This is more of a sample piece. We loved the fabric, a nice floral jean but like Tina we like it nice but we like it rrrrough, so Nat grabbed a cutter and looked decidely at me, i got a bit scared, i mean, i know i was guilty of not doing the dishes for a week but, did it have to come to this?! Luckily i think it was more of an eureka look as she just stared at the piece and ripped the frontal panelling. Of course, frayed jean!, pheeewww!
Also, if you wanna know a little bit more about us and our store, The Lazy Ones, there's an article in london.unlike. from the lovely Kirsty "that's just my vibe" Mckie. She also did some shopping, so check out her blog to see what she snapped up!

Dressed in Dresden

It's almost x-mas day and almost nye! let's dance!! They are perfect days to wear Des Moines for sure, but which one! Lots of you are loving the thread dress, some versions are now sold out, like the white one and a new remix has pop out, the thread dress last version. It's such a winner!. As well as being available at our usual stockists in the U.K, it will also be available in the U.S. at Pixie Market. As you can see i'm trying to sound all international here to impress the family over x-mas.

The cocktail dress(below left)! Thanks god a picture is worth more than a thousand words 'cos i can't really type much right now as i'm serving customers at the shop!. Below right is the new version, less vintage and more edgy, of the flow dress, which as well you can buy in the new york and L.A. stores of pixie market (r u reading that mum?).

Bye bye x-mas topshop Best seller!

26 November 2008

It's our time, our time!

We present you more fascinating designs from Des Moines xmas collection.


And the limited edition of the LDN dress (the blue ldn, on the left below) has been so well received that we have decided to add the same detailing to the original design and look how fantastic has turn out!

20 November 2008

i wanna go to cool places with you!


What a nice new dress! it's the Flow dress. Those sleeves are so arty....so 70's, with the collar..magnifique!
The two dresses from the last post, the thread dress and the blue ldn dress, provoked quite a riot in Topshop last week, most succesful launch of a collection ever for Des Moines in Topshop. So exciting! We are working on new ones and we can't wait to show you. In the meantime go to see Heartbreak at the ICA.
And are you one of the few girls that got her hands into this limited edition pieces?

10 November 2008

Fight for your right to party (season)! xmas 08 collection.


We present you the first Des Moines designs from the party season 08. Exciting! stunning!
We are working on more so we keep you posted!
The first design is the thread dress, can you believe the top part is actually jersey? It's such an amazing fabric, paired with the most delicious pure silk with gold stripes. All the trimmings are vintage and very exclusive.
The second garment, the blue ldn dress, is a limited edition and a rework of the lovely LDN dress. The skirt is shorter than the original and made out of crepe de chine. The top part is a really rare thick jersey, when you have it on it acts almost like a corset on you. Also we made it with an open back cos it's sexy!.
The third one is the puffball feather attack! so luxurious!.


In other news, our U.S. adventure is going great! Pixie Market sold out of the snakeskin print top the first week and a second order, with aditional designs, is already available in their stores! go buy it!
