The young shoe designer Sophia Webster introduced her 2013 Autumn/Winter collection with a fairytale presentation. Webster has a special customer base who are very much like her playful and quirky designs. In a few seasons, she became very popular due to "being playful, but doing this in an elegant way," according to her site.
Sophia Webster displayed her fall collection with colorful ambiance. The lookbook shows a magical place with pastel trees and fake snows as well as a beautiful garden for unicorns. The models rock pastel-streaked and braided hair piled on top of their heads, making them look like unicorns.
Webster announced that she will open a new boutique in London. The accomplished designer again shows us how to be so successful at a young age simply by being different.
