House of Hengst - Spring 2007

The above love comes courtesy of House of Hengst, designed by Susan Hengst. The name can be a bit tricky to remember but the fashion is not. Hengst is an up and comer recently-ish translpanted from San Francisco to NYC. She is a fabric junky and cuts only the best weaves. The Brigid coat (not shown) is made from some amazing wool. I itch at the mention of woolens and I could use this coat as a bathrobe. No kidding. It's that soft. The flagship store in the tender Mission district of San Francisco. It is a bastion of noble high wasted trousers and irresistable silk jersey tunics (currently). What you see here will be available early to mid-March. The website doesn't have a store so you have to call in a mail order.
