i gigi womenswear in brighton is a one-stop shop to build the look. the shop is an emporium of clothes that fits into this genre. i instantly fell in love with a mandarin-collared, knitted pea coat in virgin wool by the italian label transit par such. it's long, it's fitted and it will be perfect for my impending weekend in scandinavia. it will, i am reliably advised, be the beginning of life-long loyalty to the brand. coco blue in taunton is also a supplier of the label and both were very kind in sourcing me the piece i had set my heart on.
