Twenty8Twelve
JOINED AT THE HIP, YET 3 YEARS APART IN AGE, THE MILLER SISTERS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ENTWINED IN A WORLD OF TRAVEL AND CULTURAL DIFFERENCE BEFORE MARKING THEIR FIRM EXISTENCE IN LONDON.
FROM A VERY EARLY AGE THEIR PATHS WERE SET. THEY DIDN’T KNOW IT AT THE TIME BUT WHEN SAVANNAH MADE SIENNA’S FIRST FANCY DRESS COSTUME AT THE AGE OF 8 THE WHEELS WERE SET IN MOTION FOR A PERFECT PARTNERSHIP. THEIR RESPECTIVE OBSESSIONS WERE ACTED OUT FROM DAY 1 WITH SAVANNAH KNITTING ON PENCILS WHILE SIENNA WROTE PLAYS AT EVERY SPARE OPPORTUNITY. DETERMINATION SET THE TONE AND SIENNA STUDIED ACTING AT LEE STRASBOURG FILM INSTITUTE, NEW YORK AND SAVANNAH STUDIED FASHION AT ST MARTINS, LONDON.
ON COMPLETING THEIR RESPECTIVE TRAINING THEY MOVED IN TOGETHER WHILE EMBARKING ON THEIR NEW CAREERS, CONFIDENT IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT ONE DAY THEIR CREATIVE UNION WILL BIND THEM TOGETHER ONCE MORE. THE SEED OF TWENTY8TWELVE WAS PLANTED. SAVANNAH STARTED HER EARLY CAREER AT ALEXANDER MCQUEEN WHILE SIENNA FLOURISHED IN NUMEROUS FILMS. FROM ‘FACTORY GIRL’ TO ‘EDGE OF LOVE’, TAKING THEM TO A HIGHER PLATFORM.
WHEN THEY WERE APPROACHED BY SPANISH ENTREPRENEUR, CARLOS ORTEGA IN 2006, THEIR DREAM WAS TRANSFORMED INTO REALITY.
IT FELT LIKE A LOGICAL AND ORGANIC STEP TO TAKE AND TWENTY8TWELVE WAS BORN.
SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TWENTY8TWELVE, THEIR CREATIVE VISION HAS BEEN RECEIVED TO MUCH ACCLAIM WORLD WIDE IN STORES SUCH AS SELFRIDGES, LIBERTY, NEIMAN MARCUS, AND ISETAN.
BUILDING ON A COLLECTION OF DISTINCTIVE PIECES THAT EMBODIES THE HIGH SPIRITED ENERGY OF SIENNA AND SAVANNAH MILLER, IS THE CENTRAL THEME FROM SEASON TO SEASON. THEIR DIFFERENT APPROACHES AND IDEAS COMPLIMENT EACH OTHER FUSED WITH THEIR LOVE OF DETAIL, FABRIC AND COLOUR, PARALLELED WITH SEASONAL ARTIST COLLABORATIONS AND DENIM POCKETS FILLED WITH POETRY.
