Frantic Fashion Friday

London Fashion Week.
Day 1.
Re-Design for Life


London Fashion Week.  Day 1.  What a crazy day it was!

Disappearing invitations.  Re-appearing invitations. Technical malfunctions. Wardrobe malfunctions. Running late for shows.  Shows running late.  Hey!  Wouldn't fashion be boring without a little drama?

Corrie Nielsen started the day for me with a dramatic catwalk show inspired by Dorien Gray with a modern Japanese twist.  Images and collection round-up to follow in a separate post.

Mei Hui Liu's label Victim, returned to it;s East End roots with a pop-up shop on Redchurch Street.  There until 18th September.

Jhb/gi - James Hamilton Butler x George Ichikawa had an exhibition of their collection with video installations.

Finally the much anticipated Vauxhall Fashion Scout 'Ones to Watch' catwalk show, with innovative collections from Phoebe English, Alice Lee, Shao Yen and Malene Oddershede Bach.  I'll be posting a separate piece with images of all collections.
