“Easier” is the way Vestbø described the collection, but the de-and re-construction of long, narrow skirts looked complicated and sometimes stiff; effortlessness was to be found instead in sweaters through which scarves were pre-threaded, a polka-dot dress worn with thigh-high boots, and a draped minidress with rounds at the gathering point, which reference the cross … Read more

“Mary’s” sounds like a biker bar in Missouri, but it’s actually a smart-casual brasserie from Jason Atherton close to Hanover Square, London. It was, until recently, Pollen Street Social, but it’s now a case of new name, new menu, softer edges, and more of a come-one come-all, pre-theatre, boozy-treat, long-lunch vibe.
