London Fashion Week: Tuesday 21st February

Was definitely a lot more impressed with the last days shows at London Fashion Week. 


MARY KANTRANTZOU

This was one of my most favourite shows so far, probably up there in my top three. Mary Kantrantzou is brilliant and having produced a great capsule range for Topshop (in which I really wish I could afford !) she hit the catwalks with an amazing show. She referenced Old Elizabethan England in the silhouettes this time to change up from her last show but bought it to life in such a unique and modern way. Of course there were her signature optical prints as well as much focus on embroidery and embellishments. All in all a stand out show. 

DAVID KOMA

David Koma took paintings for reference such as Icart Decons greyhounds, Marchesa Casati by Boldini and Thierry Poncelets dog paintings with a slight reference to the 1960s. It was a very edgy and produced strong enpowering looks for women.

HOLLY FULTON 

Colour, graphics and stand out colour were key to this collection. It was very fun and girly with minimum embellishment and minimal silhouettes. It took classic shapes and modernized them with bold graphic prints .
