LFW; The Unexpected Mr Williamson
Matthew Williamson’s woman is all partied out and ready to be a grown up. This was one of the most surprising moments in London fashion week, and a very good one at that. This collection had me doing a double take. Right? Finally! Mr Williamson emerges. Look after look, girl after girl…Clean. GASP. Cool. GASP.…

LFW; King Kane.
Christopher Kane is having a moment. With bright lights and pompoms to boot. And with the power of PPR behind him, this is just the beginning of great things to come, judging by the star collection he turned out.

The cuts were more body embracing than we’ve seen in several seasons. There was sexy…

NYFW. Look to Love; Old is New
This look feels familiar; its what you have in your wardrobe, you know, old is new… Coordination is so overrated, so there’s no match-matchy going on here because this whole dressing up to the nines thing is so passé. Except of course on the red carpet where its only polite. Mornings are hard enough to…
