LFW: Richard Nicoll Spring Summer 2012

This morning set a story of laid back romance for me at the old Burberry Building at 19-22 Haymarket. The venue for the Richard Nicoll show was perfect with an atmosphere of elegance and history. I got a great spot standing and managed to finally get some close up snaps. The collection began with a [...]

LFW: Jasper Conran Spring Summer 2012

Jasper Conran was my first show of Day 2 at LFW. I took my seat to enjoy a brilliant view of one of my favourite collections thus far. An array of sheers, maxis and brights were a sharp contrast to what I was expecting having seen previous collections of nudes and pastels. Conran pleased the audience with [...]

LFW: PPQ Spring Summer 2012

The PPQ show was one of the last on the first day of a hectic London Fashion Week. I arrived quite late but luckily the show was still being queued for, so I hadn’t missed anything. In fact, the queue began to snake around the building. It was insanely packed. So much so that I [...]

Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture Fall 2011

There’s no name more exciting to hear next to the word Couture other than Jean Paul-Gaultier. I actually remember him being one of the first designers I had come familiarised with at the tender ago of 7 when my dream and aspirations of the fashion industry began. Him and Gianni Versace, but let’s not get into [...]

Valentino Haute Couture Fall 2011

“It’s the grace of a woman we’ve been looking for, that’s not a word that’s used very much today, but we think it’s more subversive now to dress like this, with a sense of regality and luxury that has nothing to do with ostentation.” – These are the words of Pier Paolo Piccioli as he [...]
