Lost & Found, by Ria Dunn

[byhand]

Which stockist buys the best group of pieces from L&F? I wish these designers all sold direct to customers. It would save me a lot of legwork chasing down particular pieces. SS12 looks like it might be the best yet from L&F.

I was hoping the scarves this season would be a touch smaller...oh well! :(

They make nice wall hangings. :)

In the US, Atelier buys into it pretty heavily these days. I think H.Lorenzo as well, and the Archive always has a few good pieces. The usual suspects, in other words.

The leather looks beautiful...this line has quickly risen to the top of my list as a favourite. I was hoping the scarves this season would be a touch smaller...oh well!

Was also hoping that there'd be some XS's. :(

Scarves are HUUUUGE! You know you want the one that comes with SZ magazine

I honestly really do.

Not sure if this has been posted...an article on Ria Dunn's husband, Alessandro Esteri, a furniture designer/photographer/etc. in World of Interiors. Interesting to see how their home matches the aesthetic of Lost & Found so perfectly.

Yes..very true.!
I thing that the work of Alessandro is very imporant for L&F..
For example, many of the prints on the fabrics are photos of Alexander, and also the style and design of packagin, should be carried out by Alexander.

/\ Really?! Who knew?!

Thanks, Dane. Missed that one!

This is a website of Alessandro : http://www.hmg.it/

And also is easy found many photo of Alessandro used in L&F...

I thing, but i'm not sure of it...that L&F start also thank to friendship between Alessandro and Mr. Alain Dominique Perrin ( from Cartier Foundation ) :this last was one of the lenders of L&F.

Correct, one of the investors is Cartier/Richemont.

Lost and Found are launching a small footwear capsule with FW12 - just a pair of shoes and a pair of boots in different treatments. Both are truly fantastic.

Haven't they always produced footwear?

[Faust]

I think they've made a pair of sandals, but I don't remember other things.

[theblackpalette]

what do your think about the SS12 leather sandals? mixed feelings about them...

what's the verdict to those who had had the privilege of handling them?

[Mikevigar]

/\ I haven't handled them either so interested to know also, they look fantastic and just the right halfway point between flip flop and claustrophobic gladiator/dd sandals. I know there are sz'ers who can't abide sandals/flip flops from comments elsewhere so wondering what the general reaction is to these? I think they're ideal for l&f, only trumped by going barefoot.
