Born and raised in the picturesque Illinois but now based in Los Angeles, Wren designer and founder Melissa Coker makes fashion for library-card-carrying hipsters. In a literary vein, the name Wren was borrowed from a Dickens character that made dresses for dolls named Jenny Wren. Quirky Brit cool meets Cali-girl on Wren’s Holiday 09 look-book featuring darling it-girls Alexa Chung and Tennessee Thomas. Slinky velvet skirts, light silk tops, shimmery frocks and dotted tights that are just so fitting in an underground dance party as in a lavish Jay Gatsby one. Can’t you just connect the dots on my legs?
