London Fashion Week AW13: Day four highlights

It’s always weird when you see big trends emerging seemingly from nowhere. Part of it is wishing things into existence. I’ll always try to make huge fluffy mohair jumpers and mannish coats a ‘thing’ if it means people will make more of them and keep me well-stocked. In the last four days I’ve definitely seen my fair share of fluffy knits and gigantic coats, plus lots of shiny PVC/patent leather, flared skirts, fur, geometric layering and posh camo patterns.

London Fashion Week AW13: Day three highlights

Today I truly experienced the luxury and convenience of a concierge service. I’ve been working with Amex to experience all they have to offer this Fashion Week, which in reality means I’ve had cars booked to ferry me from show to show, my on-the-go catering needs seen to, plus all manner of other requests – small and large – dealt with.

SS13 trend report: Would you wear leather dungarees?

Leather dungarees: yay or nay? These are from Whistles, I’ve seen them in the flesh and they look really, really good.

I can’t say I’m looking forward to the cheaper quality imitations but if you manage to get these and look as effortless as this in them, kudos to you!
