Today we release the third of our product features for Spring/Summer 2012, this time highlighting German designer Frank Leder and his beautiful selection of garments. Frank was one of the toughest to pick from when we were routing through collections for our shop this first season, he just had too many pieces that were on our design level.

Rest assured, we’re not the sort of people to write about every brand who takes centre stage in the shop.
