LONDON FASHION WEEK: MARGARET HOWELL AW10:  SHOW

London Fashion Week: Margaret Howell : Show

Inspiration:
Our girl has ventured out of town to a house party in the country. Surprisingly for a city dweller she’s committed to staying over.
After a restless nights sleep she decides to venture back to Town. Not wanting to disturb her hosts she silently collects her belongings – she throws (her now crumpled) party dress over a slip and exchanges her velvet pumps for slim lace up ankle boots. She creeps down to the kitchen and washes her face in soap and cold water – the soap leaves her skin taught and tingling clean but fails to remove all traces of the evening’s eye makeup. Her hair unbrushed she hunts around for something more adequate to wear – spotting some gardening clothes on the back of a door she pulls on a hand knit jumper and ties another around her neck. She steps outside into the cold morning light. The cold, bracing air flushes her cheeks.

Relieved to be alone she walks across the field – the damp air clings to her hair forming a frizzy halo. Her stride is confident and rhythmic – she’s enjoying the rare feeling of being alone and with no one to listen starts to sing…..

She perhaps feels a bit self conscious as she sees the station approaching and rummages around in her leather bag (slung across her) to find her i-pod- she might even tidy up a bit – pulling back her hair loosely into a band….

LONDON FASHION WEEK: SASS & BIDE AW10: SHOW

London Fashion Week: Sass & Bide: Show

Tomorrow the great is a visual collision of nature and industry; an all-consuming collective celebrating the drama of contrast and contradiction.
a modern take on Edwardian style evokes a sense of faded grandeur with high-necks and structured styles embellished in an eccentric mix of shell, bone, metal and perspex.
strong shapes and clean silhouettes make way for a graphic clashing of stripes, zig-zags and ethnic print-work, completing the cross-cultural aesthetic.
presenting, tomorrow the great.

Amazing 2nd show (held today at the Freemasons Hall, WC2) for David Koma following his graduation from Central Saint Martins. Graphic feminine structures in Napa leather and Italian wool with masterful zip embellishment, all inspired by Italian futurists Fortunate Depero and Umberto Boccion. Impressive front row attendance with the likes of Sarah Mower, Louise Wilson and Joan Burstein all congratulating David on such a strong show. Looking forward to the season ahead. Well done David !
