Delphine Manivet, London


While flanering the city recently I happened to notice the new store from Delphine Manivet along Dover st., opposite the de rigueur Dover st. market. I must admit that I had never heard of Manivet until now, and it was probably unlikely too unless I was searching for a beautiful White wedding dress - ok, completely unlikely, no really. Anyway, after a cursory search around the Internet I must say that if I were looking for a fabulously designed wedding dress and didn't wish to look like a meringue (as Madame M promises), then Delphine would be, possibly one of the people that I would visit. The store has a beautifully spacious interior space rather than the nauseous dreamy type of space one would possibly expect from this type of store. The window contains a large format graphic of a female rocking / pushing her pram in front of which is suspended one of the creations from Madame Manivet herself.
