Sophia called this “genius” in that loud voice she uses when she really really likes something. So it must have been good. It WAS good. More than good. It was amazing. Often there’s this misapprehension that Rei’s a bit serious

“Sophisticated letting go,” were the words chosen by Hermès this evening to describe their SS18 menswear outing. Very us. We’ve been sophisticatedly letting go over London, Florence, Milan and Paris and are currently doing so over a large glass of

We love Balmain. J’adore it. It’s always full-on glam-a-rama. Sophia loves Olivier so much that I think she might adopt him. And today, the lovely Mr Rousteing was looking inwards. To himself. Which is a nice place to look, he’s

Energy levels flagged this afternoon, and, well, this morning, at lunchtime and now, but mostly this afternoon - up to the point at which Benjamin Huseby and Serhat Isik’s Berlin-based fashion collection GmbH came and gave us the fashion equivalent

Yohji does Yohji. What is it they say about Gods making men in their image? Surely the same must be said of fashion Gods, which Yohji most certainly is, perhaps even the Zeus of fashion Gods - his enduring influence

I want to call this skimpy. To which I am mainly referring to a single look, a teeny-tiny suede singlet and equally teeny-tiny shorts. It made us feel strange things. Good strange things. Skimpy also were some little striped knicker-y

This evening’s Dries Van Noten menswear show took place in the former editorial offices of French newspaper, Libération. The newspaper itself was formed in the wake of the protest movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and somehow it felt like that moment

“Modern luxury” is Garth’s verdict. Which seems about on the money. We’re programmed to expect next level beauty from Haider Ackermann, and this evening he giveth us just that via his sophomore collection for the house of Berluti, which, safe

There’s something about this I can’t quite put my finger on. I want to call it delicate. Not the clothes themselves, per se, but the boys. There was a softness to them. A boyishness. You want to reach out and

For some reason, by which I actually mean one very obvious reason, that being that they both have a Y in them - whenever I read Y/PROJECT, I get Y Control by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs stuck in my head. Not

This was sporty. Not clothes to play sport in, we don’t do that, and PSA: Valentino should not be sullied with either human sweat, errant balls or other people’s hands. Rather, these were clothes that channelled the energy of sportswear. Anoraks, windbreakers,

Something familiar about this - sitting in a park, staring mistily at hot young dads and fantasising about having what we’ll call a Julia Roberts in Stepmom moment, where the children, though at first reticent, come to love us as
