BRAND: Une Femme NY
If you’re a fan of Sleeper’s ‘nightwear as daywear’ aesthetic, New York-based brand Une Femme is worth a look. Putting sustainable manufacturing front and centre, the brand’s light, ethereal dresses are perfect for the warmer weather, with each piece crafted from organic cotton, upcycled materials and leftover stock fabric. Even better, they ship internationally, so be sure to snap one up in time for spring.

BOOK: Hot Stew by Fiona Mozley
On a corner of buzzing Soho sits a large townhouse, the same as all its neighbours. But this building is filled with both the rich and the poor, from the basement to the roof terrace. Precious and Tabitha call the top floors their home, but it's under threat: its billionaire-owner Agatha wants to kick the women out to build expensive restaurants and luxury flats. Men like Robert, who visit the brothel, will have to go elsewhere. Those like Cheryl, who sleep in the basement, will have to find somewhere else to hide after dark. But the women won't go quietly. Soho is their turf, and they are ready for a fight.

The proceeds from the gallery will go to DEMAIN, a philanthropic programme that campaigns for equal opportunities for all, with whom Sézane has enjoyed a long-time partnership. With pieces starting at £40 and the most expensive only £290, consider this the kind of artwork that won’t break the bank.
