Circus presents Minus Sun
See the intensity through calmness. I make things for the girl of my dreams. All the patient handiwork is a reflection of the feelings I have for her. The pieces are not only handmade but crafted with the greatest care and attention to the tiniest details. The use of cotton and linen fabrics represents innocence within the nostalgic silhouettes with sensuous stitched details and trimmings. Fetishistic accessories complete the ambiguous look of "the girl". Her innocence is her seduction. The items may not call for attention without a close look but they are made to be eyed and touched. Each collection has a story to tell and creates a world on its own. Making things gives me the pleasure of visualising my dream girl and dressing her as I want. I invite you into my fantasy. I will dress you and undress you...
8th - 22nd July @Circus. Private view Thursday 7th July 7.30-9.30pm.

Georges fancy new footwear

2010-07-05T14:03:00.004+01:00

George and his lovely wife visited us on Saturday. With admirable focus she rifled through assorted Espadrilles and managed to find a pair in Georges size and is now relieved of the sight of Georges feet in flip flops. Honestly Circus girls had no problem with George's feet but Mrs George (please let us know your name) was most insistent that they are best covered at all times. I guess its bed socks for Christmas then?

MYC COMES TO CIRCUS JUNE 24TH 7PM

2010-06-15T19:54:00.003+01:00

For those of you that remember those delightful evenings in Mango Landin' and then the Railway, where we danced around our expensive handbags after one too many mojitos ( i'm talking about the blokes too)...
Thursday 24th June see a return to shimmying gently to well chosen sounds with our nearest and baldest(sorry dearest), in heels that are slightly to high, cocktail in hand.
Our home, on the 24th, is on the carpet outside Circus from 7pm. The music will be easy on the ear, given that it's early evening and just a taste of what we have planned for the months ahead - yes we are coaxing you off your sofas and breaking you in gently again with the signature Circus cocktail and delicious food offerings all around you.
We are also welcoming our new neighbours Hands On Music http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=119756601383110#!/profile.php?id=532503815&ref=ts to 5th Avenue. They will be doing their thing further down on 5th, if you feel like strutting your stuff in a more serious fashion.
It is summer, you are allowed, it may only be Thursday but you will be home by 11.

Ken, Barby, Cindy ( seriously) and... Gucci Greg-
