Burberry Show Their SS17 Men’s And Women’s Collections At LFW
A mass cape affair at Burberry this evening. To which we should apologise for starting at the end. But can you blame us? For the finale, the 80-ish models each came out in their very own custom cape. To which
Joseph: Ready-to-wear AW17
Little red riding shirt. We're skipping forward to look 37 here, by the way, because where better to start than the end? Here, a long red shirt was worn with one sleeve on, the other sleeves off, leaving it trailing
Pringle of Scotland: Ready-to-wear AW17
A quartet of all-black looks opened Pringle of Scotland's AW17 show. Almost like a funeral procession. But not. Because this was sombre. Think: Scottish Widow, but sexy. She showed off collarbones, a hint of bosom. Fran Stringer said it was
Christopher Kane: Ready-to-wear AW17
Important fashion-based news: the crocs are back. For a second season. Which basically now declares that crocs have, officially, thanks to Christopher Kane, been fully rehabilitated. Go. Run. Purchase. Or, alternatively wait for today’s pair - they’re furry. I mean,
Erdem: Ready-to-wear AW17
Erdem's AW17 collection began, apparently, with an imagined meeting between his two grandmothers. Which was a nice place to start. Ahhh, grandmas. Particularly interesting for the designer, though, considering one grandmother was English, the other Turkish. Think of this, then,
Roksanda: Ready-to-wear AW17
A beautiful opening to Roksanda’s AW17 collection - a long blue dress with matching belt and boots. And not just any blue, but the blue that Pantone created, alongside his friends and collaborators, to celebrate the life of the late, great Richard
Antonio Berardi: Ready-to-wear AW17
Antonio Berardi's AW17 show this morning began with, as is tradition, a quote. This time, by John. F. Kennedy. “The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities.
Peter Pilotto: Ready-to-wear AW17
Palm Court at the fabulous Waldorf Hotel was the location for Peter Pilotto AW17, setting the scene for a luxurious collection. As the ladies waltzed around us, we could imagine them being ladies of leisure gliding out to some sort of hobby
Preen by Thornton Bregazzi: Ready-to-wear AW17
Time for more peeking at the press notes. Illustrated on the back of the Preen by Thornton Bregazzi was a stack of books. Books of feminist artists the likes of Sarah Lucas, Tracey Emin and Carol Ann Duffy. Although she's
Anya Hindmarch: Ready-to-wear AW17
An icy landscape set the scene for Anya Hindmarch's AW17 collection. Think: the iceberg that sank the Titanic. And, like both the iceberg and Titanic itself, the show was of gargantuan size. This season our lady was on a journey - a literal
Mary Katrantzou: Ready-to-wear AW17
Mary Katrantzou was Disney. Not in any sickly sweet sense - no pouffy dresses or sleeping ladies here - rather, the film Fantasia. You remember, the one with hippos doing twirls, pipe-playing horned cherubs and little mushrooms dancing. A bit like
Mulberry: Ready-to-wear AW17
What, exactly, does it look like to wear a duvet cover? Or, more specifically, the duvet itself? Maybe it's more like one of those things they put over then beds in hotels. That was the question proposed, and also answered, at
Topshop Unique: Ready-to-wear AW17
"She's never been here before. She's intrigued, searching for more," so begins the press release for this afternoon's AW17 Topshop Unique show. Think of her as a bit of a traveller. Experiencing feelings of "euphoric freedom," apparently. But what about the
Roland Mouret: Ready-to-wear AW17
A national theatre for a national treasure. Okay, yes, we know that Roland Mouret isn't technically ours, being that he is a Frenchman (making him, in fact, our most favourite Frenchman) but he has long called London home. And London
Margaret Howell Show Their AW17 Men’s And Womenswear At LFW
Dominic liked the look with the corduroy at Margaret Howell's AW17 show this morning. It was a two-set - jacket, slightly wide and boxy on the shoulders, the trousers cropped at the ankle. And, talking of the ankle, could we say it
