LFW SS11: Rocha

When leaving Osman I saw John Rocha lurking around the back of the tent smoking. Most designers I wouldn’t recognise, but blame it on the Debenham’s posters. Goodbye anonymity! Due to the papal visit, there was no way for me to get to the Groucho for Cooperative Designs and get back in time for Rocha.... Continue Reading

LFW SS11: Osman (not my adorable friend from Sketchbook)

The ramshackle nature of LFW holds a certain kind of charm. This time, the charm had waned as it was even more slapdash than ever. What on earth was going on in that main tent? What was with the overzealous and enthusiastic manhandling by security? Where were the bottles of Chambord? It was only 3pm,... Continue Reading

LFW SS11: Lako Bukia

LFW SS11: BODYAMR

Bodyamr is always one of my favourite shows in LFW. The clothes are always sensual, the models are always curvy and lush and the atmosphere is delightfully fun and infectious. Continue Reading

LFW SS11: Daks AKA “I should have checked my inbox properly.”

With three hours sleep under my belt, I flung myself into the second day of LFW wholeheartedly. Or halfheartedly. There was... Continue Reading

It’s FLASHON darling! – Eley Kishimoto FLASH ON Week LFW SS11

Being uber jetlagged on the Friday meant I missed the press preview of Eley Kishimoto’s ‘FLASH ON’ Week exhibition. But it seemed that I’d dodged a proverbial bullet, as I was informed that it was hot, packed and with drink spillage all over people’s shoes. I instead went by on the Saturday, where the exhibition... Continue Reading

SPOTTED: Random British sleb at G Star Raw, NYFW SS11

Hi Nick Grimshaw! Er hi? How are you? I’m good thanks! Did you enjoy the show? *makes face* I liked the models not the clothes. Can I take a picture of you? Sure why not! By the way, what happened to your hair? What do you mean? It looks terrible. It cost a lot of... Continue Reading

SPOTTED: Wendy Lam of Nitrolicious @ G Star Raw NYFW SS11

Didn’t get the shoes in, they were fierce, to use Tyra’s vernacular. Continue Reading
