With an aesthetic best described as flirty English Rose and sweetly Victorian name like Nanette, it would be easy to make the same daft mistake that I did, and wrongly assume that
Nanette Lepore is British. Not the case, as I recently found out during a
Q&A session I had with the designer. Among the other fun tidbits, I learned that Lepore actually hails from Ohio, taught Thakoon a few tricks, shops at American Apparel, and recently opened a boutique in London. (Here, one would be correct in assuming that hershop fits in well with the city⿿s fashionable Knotting Hill neighborhood.) For more on Miss Lepore, click

check this out. X S.C.
