Fashion Conscience
Evie black dress, £750
Julia Smith Eco-Couture

This dress is part of an exclusive collaboration between Julia Smith and Fashion-conscience - one-off designs for the party season. They are handmade in England from sustainable hemp and wool. These dresses are all about what can be achieved in ethical fashion. These are the first dresses in the site’s Eco-Couture venture - high-end ethical clothing for the green star on the red carpet

Silk bib front blouse, £94
By Camilla Norrback

This blouse has a fabulous feature with little balls on the waist ties, and it can go with anything, making it a great office-to-party piece. Just jazz it up with some sparkly jewellery and you're good to go

Gold organic hemp silk trousers, £148
By Ciel

Statement trousers, but fabulous at that. I like them dressed down a note with a skinny or slouchy grey or white tee, and a pendant or chunky necklace to perk it back up again. Otherwise a chiffon shirt and heels say 'classy party girl'

Freddie cocktail dress, £270
By Doucette Duvall

Made from rescued fabric sourced and manufactured in New York by a team which donates to environmental and sustainable enterprises, the Freddie cocktail dress is surely what a modern day, socially aware Audrey Hepburn would choose. It also has a detachable sash at the back. To me this is where ethical meets class

Poppy sandal in gun metal, £277
Sui Generis for Beyond Skin

Amazing, handmade in the UK, heels, these are also 100% vegetarian and seriously sexy and party-tastic. I love the fact they go with almost anything, making them a great investment

Footless organic tights £19.50
By Sternlein

Brilliant quality organic opaque tights, that touch funkier for being footless. I'd wear these with one of the cocktail or party dresses and killer heels for a youthful twist on a classic Christmas party outfit

By Pat's

This necklace is a huge favourite, the charms are vintage or recycled and replated. It adds instant drama to any outfit

Helena ribbon sling back heels £85
By Terra Plana

A great all-rounder heel, with lovely ribbon detail at the ankle. They look great with a skinny jeans, as well as dresses and are seriously comfortable - your feet won't know you've been going until 3am

Organic silk hat, £170
Julia Smith Eco-Couture

This hat matches one of the other stunning dresses in the Eco-couture collection. Made from organic silk, it adds a unique dimension to any evening outfit. I love it, it reminds me of 50's look Dita Von Teese carries off so well
