SO, DAY 5. WAS ACTUALLY A-W-ESOME!! AMAZING SHOWS, AMAZING DESIGNERS, AMAZING COLLECTIONS. and i could've been there, watching Burberry Prorsum, and it would've been so much acer. :( never mind, always next year yes i am bitter.
SO PREPARE FOR A LONG POST- I LOVED A LOT OF TODAY'S.
FIRST UP, AMANDA WAKELY. I HADN'T HEARD MUCH ABOUT HER UNTIL A FRIEND SHOWED ME SOME OF HER WEDDING DRESSES( WHICH, BY THE WAY- ARE INCREDLBLY BEAUTIFUL) I LOVED THIS SHOW- THE WHOLE COLLECTION WOULD SIT PERFECTLY IN MY WARDROBE.
LAYERING+NEUTRALS = MY IDEA OF STYLE.
ESPECIALLY A MIX UP OF DIFFERENT TEXTURES AND FABRIC WEIGHT. LOVELY.
I WOULD HAPPILY WEAR ANY PIECE FROM THIS COLLECTION. I LOVED IT.
NEXT UP, EON JEONG. NOW, NOT PERHAPS AS WEARABLE, OR VERSATILE EVEN, BUT OUTSTANDING WITH CREATIVITY. YOU DO GET THE IDEA THE AIM WAS TO USE AS MUCH FABRIC AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE. SCREW ECO-CONCERNS IT SEEMS.
NEXT, IT'S NOT THAT I'M KEEN ON THIS COLLECTION- it isn't to my personal taste, IT'S JUST I FIND IT INTERESTING. DOES ANYONE NOTE THE NEAR SIMILARITIES OF BASSO & BROOKE'S COLLECTION TO ALEXANDER MCQUEEN'S SS09 AND SS10 COLLECTIONS?
JUST AN OBSERVATION
MOVING ON, TO COMPLETELY ACE ASHISH. THIS WAS PROBABLY MY FAVOURITE OF TODAY- for overall outcome- (though Burberry looks pretty sweet). I JUST LOVE ASHISH AND THE AMAZING COLLECTIONS SEASON AFTER SEASON. NOT MY PEROSNAL STYLE IN THE SLIGHTEST WITH BOLD COLOUR AND SEQUINS WHICH I'M SCARED OF, I CAN'T HELP BUT GET EXCITED. WITH EACH PIECE HOLDING AN 'ASHISH TRADEMARK' I WOULD HAPPILY ACCEPT ANY PIECE FROM THIS COLLECTION- AND WEAR IT WITH PRIDE WELLGOOD. WELLGOOD. WELLGOOD. SO UNIQUE
PS. so loving the ASHISH & TOPSHOP COLLABORATION- AM CURRENTLY CURRENTLY SAVING for the roll-hem sweater.♥♥♥
AND FINALLY - THE PRIDE OF BRITAIN ITSELF- BURBERRY PRORSUM. AND IT CERTAINLY DIDN'T FAIL TO PLEASE. CHRISTOPHER BAILEY DID A MIGHTY GOOD JOB THIS SEASON. THE COLLECTION IS BEAUTIFUL AND LOOKS SO TOASTY, AND THE WHOLE COLOUR PALETTE IS PERFECT FOR THE WINTER. IN FACT, IT MAKES ME ACTUALLY QUITE EXCITED AT THE PROSPECT OF AUTUMN!? (don't let the sun hear me though as i'm still holding out for a beautiful british summer!)
THE SHOES ARE INCREDIBLE AND THE RANGE OF COATS IS AMAZING- the question i'm left with is, which style to buy!? (a high-street ripper obviously, unless Mr Bailey would like to in fact send me a shearling coat himself, as a commiseration prize for my lacking attendance at the show).
amazing.
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
NOT TO MENTION THE ELITE FRONT ROW.
BOO- I COUDL'VE BEEN IN THE SAME ROOM AS MARY-KATE OLSEN.
THIS WILL TAKE WEEKS TO GET OVER.
I thought the same thing about Basso & Brooke. Loved Burberry! look forward to your next review :)
