London Fashion Week

It's my last day here today as I'm busy elsewhere for the following two days. I've had such a wonderful time and met some incredibly talented and interesting people, I'm sad to be leaving soon. Here are my highlights of the three days I spent here and from tomorrow you can expect articles about all the designers I met and all the designs I fell in love in. There is a lot of talent around and I wish the the success they deserve. I expect to hear about them a lot soon. Also I'm gonna be looking at all the shows we've seen over the course of the exhibition and pick my favourites.
Have a stylish day.

London Fashion Week day 4

Today has been a very exciting day. Lots of the big name designers had their shows on today, but unfotunately I didn't get to see any live. However I went to the live streaming of Burberry show at Picadilly Circus in London, which was full of very stylish people watching the show. I truly enjoyed it and Christopher Bailey again didn't dissapoint. The show was a star studded event as expected (spotted at front row: Alexa Chung, Mario Testino, Lily Donaldson, Anna Wintour and the list goes on..) and the collection another top one. I love him and his designs! Next season I definitely have to apply for a ticket. But at least I've got pictures for you live from Picadilly and I am going to fully report on the show tomorrow.
I also bumped into the very talented Felder Felder ladies today, who seem really busy, but agreed to have their picture taken. And there was loads more, including meeting Alexander Wang at Liberty. All about it tomorrow and upcoming days. Stay tuned :)
Have a stylish day.

Vintage Sunday

It's all about London Fashion Week at the moment and to celebrate the excellent news that Tom Ford decided to do his presentation in London (happened this morning to handful of editors) I decided to dedicate my Vintage Sunday to him. Do you remember the controversial YSL campaign for Opium featuring Sophie Dahl as nature intended. It's very daring, very sexy, very Tom Ford. I LOVE it!
Have a stylish day.

Jonathan Saunders AW 11

Following today's earlier post about cheaper version of Jonathan Saunders clothes, I am bringing you pictures from hist yesterday's show. This talented Scot has been on my radar for quite a while now and he didn't dissapoint. His use of colour is equisite and although the clothes may seem quite strict, they are very sexy too. I was glad to see first few looks from his upcoming menswear collection as well. It's quite playfull and showing men not to be afraid of colour. Thumbs up for his interesting use of print. I'd say it is one of his best collection so far. I love it all.
Have a stylish day.

London Fashion Week day 3

I can't believe it's the day three already! Unfortunately I'm going to miss it today as I have other commitments, but I'll check all the pictures later on style.com. I especially can't wait to see what Emma Hill has in store for us at Mulberry - my favourite brand for handbags, also showing today are Matthew Williamson and Temperley London, two exciting designers not to be missed.

Looking back at the last two days, shows I really liked so far are by Danielle Scutt (lots of velvet, lovely dresses, great detailing) and Felder Felder (amazing silhouettes), but my favourite ( I know it may seem early after two days) is by Sass and Bide. I love the fact that they continue with the spring colour blocking trend, introducing a selection of hues and some bold prints. The whole collection is anything but boring and the colour palette is just striking. Especially loving the accessories, which I to die for. I must have a Sass and Bide bag and raspberry shoeboots. Who is your fav so far?

Have a stylish day.

London Fashion Week day 2

So it's the day too here at Somerset House. Loads of designers already presented their AW 11 collections and amongs today ones were big names like Jaeger, Henry Holland and Jonathan Saunders (more about him later).  Apart from being here I went round London today, because I had to do some stuff and I took some pictures that I want to show you. So I've got loads of exciting posts coming up in the next few days, don't forget to check regularly.
Today I want to show you pictures from yesterday's show I attended by Jasper Garvida and also share gossip from last night's Vauxhall Fashion Scout's 10th year anniversary party, both held at the Freemason's Hall in London.
Jasper Garvida has been on the fashion scene since November 2008 and has produced four ready-to-wear collections, all highly acclaimed. Its luxury womenswear is one to watch. What better way to describe the collection than in his own words:
Inspired by the novel ‘Soie’ by Alessandro Baricco – a romantic tale of a European man who becomes enchanted by the east – the collection focuses on contrasts, and the beauty that can be formed when two different worlds intertwine. With elements of 19th century design combined with an oriental silhouette, the collection incorporates strong streamlined tailoring and soft draping with demure skirt lengths that have been given a sexy edge in the form of daring slits and peek-a-boo cut-outs to reveal flashes sensuality.

The slick tailoring, armour-like-hand-embellishment and textured pieces are combined with beautiful, softly draped silk jersey and, lace pieces that depict the journey of two opposite worlds meeting, to create balance, harmony, grace and elegance – all of which serves to add an intriguing romantic undertone to the collection.

Jasper Garvida is one of the many designers showcased by Vauxhall Fashion Scout, who help promote new emerging designers to wider range of audience. They have helped exciting talent like David Koma, William Tempest, Felder Felder to name just a few. I was excited to be invited to their party celebrating ten years of being leading platform for design innovation. The free bar full of great cocktails, they had amazing home made sushi and cakes, the music was just right and the crowd interesting. I had a great night and have a few pics to share. Hope you'll enjoy them all.
Have a stylish day.
