Eileen Gray E1027 Side Table

Posted on | Leave a comment

E1027 
Plenty of side tables have this minimalist combination of chrome and glass, but this is the original Eileen Gray E1027 Side Table, a true design classic.

It shares its name with the summer house Eileen Gray built for herself and her collaborator, Jean Badovici. The name is a code for their relationship; E for Eileen, 10 for Jean (J being the 10th letter of the alphabet), 2 for Badovici and 7 for Gray. The table is adjustable so it can be moved into various positions and uses. The frame is always made from chromium-plated steel, but the table tops are available in crystal clear glass, smoked glass or black lacquered metal.

Prices range from £575 to £685 from Aram.

To carry off a bold retro print, designers have to get the cut and shape of any piece just right for a true vintage feel. Heartbreaker Fashion rarely put a foot wrong, hitting the mark once more with this simple but stylish Monique Dress.

Shown here in their new print, aptly named Summer, they've plumped for a classic swing dress style that's ideal for the season. With a high neckline, sleeveless cut and subtle flaring at the skirt, the cute addition of a bow at the waist is made all the more effective by blending with the all-over print.

It's available now from Heartbreaker Fashion online for $90.

Adidas Montreal trainers reissues in a bold shade of blue

Posted on | Leave a comment

Mont

We've seen a few variations of these over the past few months, with a new Size? exclusive of the Adidas Montreal trainers just landing in blue.

A rather bold and eye-catching shade of blue suede, with white detailing and a contrasting sole. That heel is distinctive – as you might know, it was originally developed from the Gazelle design, but with a collapsible heel that was designed to allow footballers to get the shoe on and off easily after training. Or in your case, to slip on when you fall out of bed.

Available now if you want to brave the sluggish Size? website, £60 is the price.

Looking for a project as winter approaches? This 1972 Citroen DS could be it.

Not as sharp as the 1969 version we featured a while back, but this isn't in the same condition. Not that we're writing it off – the car still has a lot going for it – and is ready to go if you want it for the daily commute.
