London Fashion Week

So as London Fashion comes to a close after a mindblowing week of wonder, it leaves everyone reeling in suspense as to what awaits us in Paris. Here I have shown some of my personal favourite highlights of the week.

Finally after a decade, Burberry returned to show at London's prestigious fashion week, and head designer Christopher Bailey did not disappoint! The pre-catwalk atmosphere was pulsing in anticipitation of what was to come, as A-lister after A-lister poured into the show. Military appeared to be the dominating theme for Bailey's collection, as his models were smothered head-to-toe in full on military garments. Aviator styled sheepskin jackets, khaki tailored coats, alongside navy uniform pieces all came together to form a sensational collection. Large gold buttons and collars seemed to stand out as the focus on many outfits.

Nathan Jenden may not have the same internationally acclaimed profile in the fashion industry as Burberry, but his collection was received with comparable enthusiasm. The entirety of his womenswear A/W10 collection screamed wonders, from his enviable cuts to his sublime fabric embellishments.

Along with military and tailoring dominating the AW 10 catwalks, Basso & Brooke continued with their passion of bold prints. Combining fresh colour palletes of blues, whites and greys with abstract prints undoubtedly brought the catwalk to life. Their collection and prints focus on what appears to be architectual themes.
