Former model Sophie Dahl launches fashion collection

Dahl's range will be called The Lost Weekend English author and former fashion model, Sophie Dahl has created a capsule collection for British cashmere label Brora, available nationwide from April 15.  The range - which is called

The Lost Weekend - features 13 pieces inspired by items that the supermodel felt were missing from her personal wardrobe. The collaboration celebrates the brand's 20th anniversary.
The line includes a tea dress, a slouchy fisherman's jumper inspired by seaside shots of Brigitte Bardot, and a cashmere shawl-collared cardigan, which the model describes as "gorgeous, luxurious, yet relaxed". Colours come in pale rose, green and grey, with patterns taking a faded Thirties feel.
