Regular Z.I.U.readers will remember that we recently featured the uber cool label STARLOVER, and their collection of customised leather jackets, featuring Bowie stars and lightning bolts. Plus Cats Eye sunglasses with fierce metal spikes, Balearic boho dresses and rock & roll slogan tees, as seen on Kate Moss at Glastonbury. The whole collection fits perfectly in Ibiza and this weekend, two Balearic lightning bolts hit the same spot at the same time.
This weekend, a STARLOVER pop up shop lands at the Love Shack in the infamous Pikes Hotel. Yes, the same legendary hotel that opens for the 2019 season this Saturday. And before you ask, I’ll be there for both.
The designer behind the label, Donna Ganley, started the brand a couple of years ago. With a background working on art commissions for private clients, Donna was perfectly qualified for her very “artistic” take on fashion.
Donna had the idea of combining art and fashion when she started hand painting onto jackets, mainly leather. Word of mouth spread, more and more requests came in, and the concept grew from there.
When I spoke to her recently, Donna commented about Ibiza: “It has played a huge part in things for me. It’s an inspiration in so many ways… the spiritual side of the island, the hippy ideal and the whole vibe inspires creativity. I have been lucky enough to work for and create art for the legendary rock n roll Pikes hotel, Starlover just sits so well with everything the hotel stands for”.
Come and see what the fuss is all about.
