Mischa Barton releases her own iPhone 5 accessories at the Uunique London press day

If you are the lucky owner of the new iPhone 5 then it is needless to say you need the ultimate phone case in order to show it off to its full potential. On Wednesday, we were able to discover Uunique London, who has the answer to all your mobile accessory problems.

The Tattersalls Room at the lavish Berkeley hotel in Knightsbridge was transformed into a smartphone accessory heaven as the Uunique press day took over, showcasing its glamorous new collection. Known for always being “one step ahead of the latest trends in fashion and technology”, Uunique has managed to bring a distinctive, glamorous take to cases for our new cellular gadgets.

Mischa Barton, who has worked with Uunique on her own range of new iPhone 5 cases, was present at the event and gave the day an added fashionable edge. Wearing a clashing yet impeccably smart suit and a pair of Louis Vuitton shoes, Mischa looked naturally stunning. The idea for her collection was bringing together her own fashion label with Uunique to make the perfect collaboration. A host of different styles, including a white leather case with flower motif as well as a fun, printed girl design on a pink background, were among her work which was reflective of Mischa’s iconic personality.

As well as this exciting collection, Uunique also launched its own range of fashion phone cases that oozed sheer quality.  From leather to suede, the materials used are impressive and chic, allowing new and interesting designs to be created. Snakeskin in bold and bright colours became a definitive statement when placed with precision on the back of an iPhone and clever cases with table stands were all of the talk amongst guests. The Fashion collection included dogtooth prints and butterflies, while intriguing appliqué designs shone through. With prices starting from £24.99, Uunique’s new accessories are also completely affordable, making them perfect stocking fillers this Christmas.

In a more alluring approach to phone accessory class, the Elite collection took cases to a whole new level. Swarovski crystals in beautiful shades created floral designs on cases, giving an added wow factor to phone style. Starting at £99, these cases are still reasonably accessible and allow your phone to sparkle with true elegance.

The final range, entitled the Millionaire edition, was nothing less than breathtaking. Creating a range of cases from the finest 24 carat crystals, Uunique has managed to make unbelievable, remarkable statements for your mobile. With only 50 of each design being made, these cases are exclusive and start from £600. We added the black and silver glimmering polka dot number to our wish lists this December.

Because they understand how important our phones are to us, Uunique has also considered what our power chargers look like too! Printing their signature logo on adapters for wall sockets and car chargers ensures that a statement is made every step of the way with your smartphone.

Uunique managed to create a durable, fashionable range of must haves for the iPhone 5, so make sure you get your hands on one before it’s too late! Find more designs and ranges here.
