One to Watch... Alice Godin

Today I had a reunion with my Belgium host sister Mano and this lead me to see her elder sister's beautiful collection.

Alice Godin is a recent graduate from The Polimoda Insitute in Florence, Italy and she already has the attention of Italian Vogue.

She is currently working with 'La Perla' and has a been approached by several stores.

I love this girl and she is going places with pieces like these...
