DESIGNER FEATURE: JULIET SOUTER (CO-FOUNDER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF MARLE)

Living here has definitely influenced the way I design and create our collections. The lifestyle here is inherently more relaxed and home-based so I feel the collections reflect that. We want Marle to work for women of any age, any stage in her life and from anywhere. Whether it’s home, work, running around after children – the premise is that it’s everyday luxury so fabrics and fits are essential to bringing this philosophy to life.

WHY WOMEN STILL NEED TO PLAY THE GAME NOW MORE THAN EVER.

The fact is, equality as a concept is so multi-layered and complex. If people are brave enough to contemplate climbing the equality tree it could lead even the toughest of hikers onto a wobbly branch that they wouldn’t feel secure placing their body weight on top of (and before you ask, that wasn’t a reference to consent).
