Some of my favourites. London has been impressive this Fashion week and has really put London back on the map!
Mark Fast.
I was lucky enough to work on the Faster by Mark Fast SS2012 Fashion show at New York Fashion Week sept 2011 and I’ll tell you the designer is a genius.
This collection is elegant, young and refreshing to see knits made so beautifully. I love the knitted plait dresses which are very different. The fabrics look luxuriously sheer and body conscious, together in those soft nudes and muted colours make the collection very sophisticated and wearable. I love the way his pieces are body conscious but so delicately, especially the deliberate sheer panels across the bust that show a bit more skin than the rest of the garment, the cut out pieces across the hips, and lower back and the collar bones on show all draw your eye to the most feminine parts of the body making the pieces ever so slightly sexy and sensuous.
Erdem.
My favourite. All hail Erdem. A killer collection yet again. I love the interesting mix of fabrics with black lace over tweed and leather. A little fetish like with the edgy fabrics but still remaining feminine with the sophisticated cutting, cinched waists, tight pencil skirts and capped sleeves. The fabrics are literally mixed up (see look no 4 from the left) with lace and florals combined but they all come together wonderfully. In love with the second look, black lace over the bright white trousers and a high neck silk, no sleeves blouse cinched at the waist and balloons at the hips. Perfection. What is great about Erdem is it has its own style, a signature and its so recognisable. Erdem stays true to what it does best. Why change it up when you do what you do best to perfection?

love. love . love. with my heart. heart. heart. Colour! Prints! The bright and intricate prints on the silk and the layered printed cardigans over printed tops are mesmerising. The use of 3 or more different pinks in one outfit works spectacularly, glamorous, girly and colourful. I could wear every piece of this collection. I more than love. 
PPQ.
I’ve recently become a fan of PPQ. I find the collections very unique and different. Especially this collection. There is a vintage feel to the collections with the high waisted high leg shorts, the off the shoulder sleeves, chiffon bow scarves tied at the side of the neck, side sweeped wavy hair and red lips, there is something that says drama to this collection. There is also something that looks a little Pantomime / costume / stage like from the black & white tights making it fun and youthful as well. I think its wonderful.
more to come
