If you look at this picture, really carefully, just to the left of this red-clad model, you can see Tim Blanks sat, as always, on the front row. Last season, the editor-at-large at Style.com prophesied that the Cult of Craig was about to explode. Has it? Well, yes, it has. Tim was, again, as always, right. No-one cried this time but, as someone tweeted, everyone at the show was screaming “I want this!” And that’s just it, Craig make clothes to critical acclaim and of commercial viability. Clothes that make people scream “I want this!”. From the jumper, dark blue and dark teal, with a single, circular hole in the middle; to the cropped shirt and combat jacket, also in dark blue. And yet he makes clothes that are, quite simply, beautiful too. Once again, we’re going crazy for Craig.
