Mix and match pieces from EQ:IQ’s Fall/Winter collection.
While some designers are still pushing the tough “rock chick” look, we’re quite relieved that EQ:IQ‘s Creative Director, Stephanie Stindel, has delivered a collection based on the effortless style of the Parisian woman – feminine and sophisticated with an edge.
This collection is made up of a mix of eclectic EQ:IQ pieces inspired by a few key themes. There’s the ‘impressionable prints’ of the Parisian life which translates into a pretty ‘Cloud’ print dress, vintage-inspired ‘Wallpaper’ print silk dress and red “Bisous’ lipstick kiss print that captures the romance and style that we know as just being quintessentially Parisian.

We spotted a lot of luxurious looking pieces and quite a few gorgeous bags we can’t wait to get our hands on!
Ninfeo mio is a fragrance inspired by the forgotten gardens of Ninfa located in the old city of Ninfa, once referred to as medieval Pompeii in the southeast of Rome.
There’s a charming little story about The Ninfa garden which belongs to the aristocratic Caetani family. It laid abandoned and in ruins for over six centuries after a civil war broke out and was only restored back to a botanical garden in 1920, when Ada Wilbraham, wife of Onorat Caetani fell in love with the garden and made it her life’s mission to restore it. Considered one of the most romantic and beautiful gardens in the world, if you are ever in Italy, be sure to pay a visit.
Annick Goutal has captured the scent of this garden in a bottle.
