If I were to choose only one out of all the great aspects of the Christmas holidays, it would definitely be carefully going through all my magazines over and over again. Whether I read Vogue, GQ, Bazaar or i-D surprises come to the surface once you've had the time to see beyond the images and read the quick notes and dig into the first pages' details. Well, it was this favourite treat of mine that brought me to discover Olivia Rubin. January's Vogue UK issue selects her as the "need to know" for the new year, a refreshing proposal of a St. Martins graduate who excelled in pattern making and was selected to participate in the college's annual catwalk show. The key to her success is in the simple way she creates patterns and includes them on cotton, chiffon and silk taking anyone who dares to stare to an alternative universe where Calvin Klein meets Pin-up girls.
If you're already looking of the perfect way of investing your extra Christmas pay, this is it. Something fresh and new that will never cross the door to enter the old-fashion world.
