JLS in Left Bank Garms!

OK, so the boutique I work/learned my craft at/ spend most of my days at have recently had some amazing things happening!! The Left Bank (In Byram Arcade, Huddersfield) is owned by Designer Hardy Punglia and sells exclusive designer garments, all handmade in the studio adjacent to the shop! we do menswear, womenswear, accessories, and restyled vintage wear. We also sell on ASOS Marketplace which is where the stylist for JLS picked up our stuff and which the band has since worn on BGT (when they did their AMAZING performance with Diversity.) check out the pants in the pic!! And was also worn last night on the first date of their tour in Hull. check the video! black and yellow colour theme - The Left Bank made the pants on all 4 boys and the 1 <3 You top! sweeeeeet =)

starting out..

Well I've been working on JLomas Designs for a few weeks now and am very happy with how its going! Starting to make the first pieces and think about the 'fun stuff' like swing tags, logo designs, marketing (parties!!) etc etc!
Here's a pic of the beginning stages of one of the first dresses, hereby named The Charlotte Dress.
I'll be showing it along with [hopefully] some others at my presentation on Wednesday 15th June! (trying to get some much-needed funding to really get JLomas Designs out there!)
