A Fairytale World....

As I promised last time, I want to feature the wonderful Gitte Lyng Sørensen from Wonderwho in Århus. She is a knitwear designer and truly has created a universe of her own. Stepping into her 300m2 combined studio and shop in a former factory is like opening the door to Alice´s wonderland:

Gittes own handknitted dresses, cardigans and shawls and a fine selection of vintage accessories, shoes and casual dresses also designed by Gitte.

The old loft is a fantastic space with incredibly high ceilings, and the place is crammed with Gittes fantastic design so you feel as if you could get lost in all the beauty and glamour that is spread out on racks and shelves.

Gitte herself is the most welcoming and inspiring person you can imagine, offering visitors a cup of tea and make you feel at home in her fairytale world. Here are a couple of my favourite pieces from her collections:

If you like Gittes creations, visit the WonderWho website - I ´m sure she will be happy to post overseas. And if you come to Århus, make sure to visit her at Nørrebrogade 6, 8000 Århus.

Of course I had to get some of this loveliness for myself, and how lucky she had a sale going on, so here is what I treated myself with: A cream vintage style petticoat and matching feathery corsage/hairpiece.....


....and the same petticoat in a dusky pink and a matching sheepskin stole. Glamour!!!


Wishing you all a Happy Easter and don´t forget to pop around my Fleur de Bohème fb page and like it so you can keep updated with what happens in my webshops! I´ve recently dropped my dayjob and need to boost my sales, so if you would spread the word I´ll be thankful ;-))
