Roksanda: Ready-to-Wear SS18
Colour so good it’s edible. You want to eat it. Candy shop-shades of cerise and red, yellow and electric blue sit alongside a palette cleanser of pure, bridal white. Roksanda always feels super polished. These clothes look expensive, glam, and
Antonio Berardi: Ready-to-Wear SS18
Topical *and* political: the show notes left on our seats at the Antonio Berardi show were simple and to the point: a quote from Roosevelt reminding us all that we, too, are all immigrants somewhere in our family timeline. And this was
Chalayan: Ready-to-Wear SS18
More avant garde adventures with Mr Chalayan. Bit of a lie actually, the first half of the show was actually quite "normal" for the cerebral designer - normal in the sense it was real clothes, a study in brilliantly cut
Anya Hindmarch: Ready-to-Wear SS18
The set at Anya Hindmarch was a house. Notes called it a symphony to suburbia. Having come from suburbia, I can attest that this is actually very much unlike suburbia, which is entirely depressing, and this was not depressing at
Margaret Howell: Ready-to-Wear SS18
More riffs on Britishness at Margaret Howell. It's the fashion equivalent of a warm bath - you always sort of know what you're getting, but it doesn’t make it any less pleasurable. Plenty to like here. A nice silhouette. There
Emporio Armani: Ready-to-Wear SS18
Stream these films immediately: Mystic Pizza, Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink. Tragi-excellent American high school films celebrating simpler times, where girls dressed up in shiny hi-tops and bombers to flirt with boys in sporty cars. More of this later. Mr Giorgio Armani is
Topshop: Ready-to-wear SS18
In no particular order: Soho, nightclub, marabou, bustier, supermodel. So far, so us. Now, we could delve deeper into the inspiration - Corinne Day, Madame Jojo's, Revuebar, the days before Instagram - but, quite frankly, all you really need to
Versus Versace: Ready-to-Wear SS18
A distinct whiff of cowboy at Versus Versace today. Cowboys at the beach? How else to explain the appearance of a speedo with “VERSUS” spelt out in diamante on the behind? If anyone can get away with it, it’s Donatella. The lady
Mary Katrantzou: Ready-to-Wear SS18
Few women (or men, for that matter) could convince us to raise ourselves from a state best described as “recently deceased” and haul ourselves to central London of a Sunday morning, but luckily, Mary Katrantzou happens to be one of them. I’m

House of Holland: Ready-to-wear SS18
Don't tell us off for starting with a quote from the release again, they really can say it better than we - case in point, Henry's latest House of Holland notes, which began by calling the girls: "seductive swashbuckling sirens." Very
Richard Quinn Shows A Special Collection At Liberty
La Neophitou loved. *Lurrrved* "Get it up everywhere, gorge," she phoned into HQ this AM. And it was very good. Richard Quinn's a fine young talent, you see - the CSM-grad taking maximal, couture like shapes and warping them to
Molly Goddard: Ready-to-wear SS18
The Molly Goddard girl is just like us this season - namely, she may or may not have a drinking problem. The doctor’s told her that she's drinking too much, or so the story, direct from la release, goes. Now
Ports 1961: Ready-to-wear SS18
Find a full-length mirror immediately: look into it, look at your clothes. Think: am I happy with what I'm wearing? Am I happy with my wardrobe in general: does it work? Moreover does it work *hard enough*. To ascend to those
