London street style: Blow up

Comments

While the New York uniform is heavy on black, London style is heavy on creativity and colour. We love the volume of this gorgeous cobalt blue skirt especially when paired with the large paint splattered bag (is that an inflatable pool toy?). This streeter has us dreaming of Jeannie.

London street style: The big picture

1 Comment

This streeter’s look is why we love London Fashion Week: The style is no holds barred. A shiny striped jacket with puffy shoulders paired with a neck piece that looks like ninja weaponry? Easy.

London street style: Armed force

Comments

There is something severe and military-esque about this streeter’s outfit–from the top knot down to the fur sleeves, the leather harness and the lace-up boots.

London street style: The blue sea

Comments

This streeter’s topper contains oceans, snow-capped mountains, ice shelves, hurricanes… Let’s see a camel cape do that.

London street style: Black and blue

1 Comment

While we’re suckers for drama (who doesn’t love yards and yards of tulle) there’s something extremely refreshing about an unfussy, uncomplicated outfit. And while this streeter opts for the simpler route, she injects some personality with a big scarf and oversized glasses.

London Fashion Week diary: Fashion show sightseeing at Matthew Williamson, Nicole Farhi and more

I love London. I haven’t spent much time here–a day in transit here, a week or two there–so what’s been particularly brilliant (to borrow a very British descriptor) is when designers host their fashion shows off-venue. The Topshop space, which has hosted the Topshop Unique, Richard Nicoll, and Peter Pilotto shows, is an old EuroStar rail location, and last night, Matthew Williamson converted the old Battersea Power Station into an all-white, slick catwalk. It was amazing. Today, Erdem‘s show took place in a garden, and Nicole Farhi presented at the Royal Opera House. Some design houses hold their shows at their headquarters–Burberry’s afterparty last year was at its huge, multi-story office on Horseferry Street; Paul Smith‘s show on Monday was at the company’s London home on Kingsway–which gives you a nice glimpse of the brand’s aesthetic at its best. It’s like fashion show sightseeing!
