Wee find: Cecilia Hammarborg

Cecilia Hammarborg is one of the core designers of the London-based Swanfield collective (see my post about the pop-up shop below), and her current winter coat collection, Black River Falls, has just been picked up by Topshop. I do love the feminine swishiness of the Riding Hood and Petrel coats, and they're extremely flattering to wear. Apparently the voluminous Petrel coat is very popular with pregnant women.

Blue Riding Hood Coat, £250 and Noir Storm Petrel Coat, £295 by Cecilia Hammarborg.
