Gary Graham

In Dover Street Market, after a coffee in the petite and charming Rose Bakery on the top floor, I was drawn to a collection by Gary Graham, a New York-based designer I haven't come across before. Beautiful, quirky, reconditioned and seriously wearable fabrics and elegant shapes make the label stand out in an intimidatingly stylish crowd. I had my eye on a muted dove grey dress made of cashmere-soft jersey – one of those items you'd have and love for ever. Love the fact that DSM stock Labour & Wait homewares – their enamel milk pans and chunky dustpan and brushes have a strange allure.
