Many wonderful people, things and ideas originate from the U.K.: rock bands like the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, yummy foods such as pancakes and sports as popular as boxing, field hockey and tennis. It almost goes without saying that some of the most stylish and timeless fashion brands began across the pond, as well. Names like Burberry and Dr. Marten come to mind quickly, but it is the lesser-known labels that really give British fashion its edge. Enter: Rat and Boa.
Founded by best friends Valentina Muntoni and Stephanie Cara Bennett, Rat and Boa’s designs embody nothing but its infamous slogan, which goes “for the free spirits, daredevils, night lovers, and dirty dreamers.”
Just one look through the online boutique, filled with detailed knitwear, crushed velvet and delicate satin and lace, and proves the acclimation true. Their newest collection Devil’s Paradise is the ultimate rebel without a cause wardrobe. The most stunning and unique pieces from the collection are:
Night Rider Skirt
Wanderer Crop Top
Atmoic 79 Dress
Supernova Dress
Luna Ray Dress
Dress these pieces up with sleek leather jackets and high heeled boots, or play them down with worn-in t-shirts and street sneakers – either way, a girl rocking Rat and Boa is sure to be the one turning heads.
While everything on Rat and Boa’s online website is priced according to English currency, we think the conversion is some math you won’t mind doing.
