#LFW - Mini Show Report - Issa London AW13 Posted by Unknown |

As soon as I locked eyes on the live stream, I knew – with ever-increasing certainty – that Issa AW13 would be my favourite show. The boho luxe, the feathered fedoras, the out-on-the-plain polo necks, the graphic but feminine prints all screamed camp beneath the desert stars (Brazilian designer Daniela Helayel talking about "...a trek to the desert") and dance with wild abandon. Sorry if that sounds indulgent, but something about the clothes' flowing confident abandon (apologies: repeat word) tapped into how I like to feel, and how I like clothes to make me feel. Btw I had no idea that Camilla Al Fayed bought 51% of the company in 2011 and I'd also forgotten that Issa was a favourite of Kate Middleton. Hmmm, never mind, the clothes speak for themselves and have utterly worked their magic on me at least. Watch the full show in the video below and tell me what you think.

#LFW - Mini Show Report - FelderFelder AW13 Posted by Unknown |

I thought I'd set myself the challenge of doing a series of mini show reports on my favourite shows with the criteria of choosing just four looks – the looks that stood out to me the most but also the ones which I feel defined the show. So here goes. FelderFelder AW13 feels much more evolved than previous collections; grown up in the sense of exploring and breaking new ground. The FelderFelder black body-hugging rock chick staples still underpin the collection (flared mini-skirts and cigarette pants) but there are some exciting new elements – fresh new colours, trench coats. tailoring and a dreamlike princess dress in flowing silver (LOVE) . The breathtaking show closer was two gigantic Mongolian furs in grey and white, belted and beautiful. No wonder the Felder twins were so gleeful at their end-of-show appearance, they're taking things to the next level. Watch the show below and tell me what you think. (NB – red lips throughout.)

London Fashion Week SS13 Kicks Off - Live Streaming Too Posted by Unknown |

I'm a big fan of fashion week live streaming. There are quite a few places you can see London Fashion Week online – I just watched Felder Felder SS13 (sheer, diaphanous, ruffly and very beautiful since you ask; will post my favourite looks once they're available) with Kate Nash giving a live performance here on ldnfashion.com. The next live stream show I'm really looking forward to is Topshop Unique bringing to us all sorts of LFW firsts – via the live stream on topshop.com you'll be able to customise, shoot, post and buy the looks (the clothes will be with you three months before they arrive in store and the make-up straightaway!). Sunday 3pm. Topshop will also be streaming the rest of the shows taking place at the Topshop Showspace including Mary Katrantzou (Sunday 7pm), Peter Pilotto (Monday 9am) and Louise Gray (Monday 3pm).
