If you have followed Soru from the start you will have already met Laura Wills, AKA The Fashion Bug Blog. We did our very first collaboration with her, all those years ago in the summer of 2018. Featuring only a few pieces, the stand out bestsellers were colourful rainbow hoop earrings that sold out instantly. Following on from this collaboration we went on to do 5 more collections together- more rainbows, but this time in pastel colours, we created a heart hoop earring that became part of the Soru identity, and shot a Slim Aarons-inspired poolside campaign that produced some of my favourite images for our brand.
And now in 2026 - she's back! This time with a totally different vibe - delicate talisman pieces, made for layering. Introducing our new
Signs Collection.
Using
evil eyes with turquoise or crystal centres, and hamsa hands, we have created
stacking rings, necklaces and bracelets. To be worn everyday, they look great layered with whatever you have on. Our two
necklaces- one a shorter
choker, look great worn together.
To celebrate we held an event at
The Dorchester in the iconic
The Oliver Massel Suite. The suite was the perfect space to hold tarot card readings with
The Fixer One and crystal energy healing with
Lyn Jinks. We invited a selection of friends and press to view the collection and enjoyed an afternoon of mystic delights. The guests enjoyed a champagne brunch and the morning was filled with chatter of what the readings had revealed.

The suite was utterly divine and perfect for Soru - a golden shell loo and gold shell coving, sun wall lights, gilt scalloped edging and a terrace designed by one of my favourite artists- Luke Edward Hall- it was a dream.
Our teenage daughters came to help for the day, making up the gift bags and greeting guests, it was lovely to have them as part of the experience. Our guests were sent off with a Soru gift bag with a piece from the collection, and we ended the day with a family dinner at
La DoubleJ Summer Garden at The Dorchester.

I hope you love our new collection!
