Bella Freud has carved out a niche in the fashion world, well known for her rebellious yet chic designs that mix bold graphics with playful slogans and vibrant colours. Freud's brand has become a wardrobe staple for many of our favourite a-listers, and we all remember the "Ginsberg is God" jumper worn by Kate Moss in the early noughties. This collaboration, well and truly signals her return, and we couldn't wait to share it.
Not only this, but she's also started a podcast titled "Fashion Neurosis", where each week she is joined by special guests to explore the connection between fashion and identity.
Bella says in an interview with M&S , "I wanted it to be an intensification of what I do best, so I’ve chosen things that are the essence of what I feel I do well.
"It's a small collection, so I thought about what is the most flattering jacket, what’s the best jacket I make? And the best pair of trousers? So I took elements of those things that I’m familiar with making."
