Mehreen Aslam

Layers, a sewing table and a long walk past the mills

I style layers: a long coat over a tunic, a sage scarf pinned with a pearl pin, everything chosen to move well and keep warm in Bradford weather. A lot of it I sew myself at a table in my back bedroom.

Each week there's an outfit post, and every fortnight a longer feature on a fabric, a cut or a person worth knowing. The styling guide I wrote is in the shop below.
