London Fashion Week: Street Style

Welcome back!

I still have a tonne of London Fashion Week photos to show you all but instead of another catwalk post I thought I would show you some photos of some street style I captured. If I'm honest the reason I love Fashion Week the most is because I love seeing everyone else's outfits. Let me know which street style snap was your favourite in the comments down below and link your street style snap posts too!

These two girls were so lovely and their outfits were so chic and sophisticated I couldn't resist asking them for a photo. I love the sandals with the circle embellishments paired with the maxi dress and clutch. Simple yet beautiful. Less really is more. Stripes are in this season, and their styled beautifully here in the form of a tailored jacket. The colour palette is muted making it the perfect addition to any outfit.

How could I not take a photo of this lovely lady's outfit? Especially as she had made and designed it herself. I love the mix of textures and bold colours. It really brings back the true meaning of fashion; have fun with it and be yourself. It's so refreshing to see such unique styling and to meet someone who is truly passionate about what they do. You can follow Monique on her Instagram here. 

Although it was extremely windy I did finally manage a half decent snap of this beautiful ensemble. The coloured varsity jacket was actually brought from a vintage store in Japan- which I loved and was very envious of! Paired with some dark flared jeans and black choker, this outfit is the epitome of 90's chic. You can follow Mia and her magazine on Instagram here.

Another colourful ensemble. I love the embroidery on the jeans and colour blocking used for the top half of the outfit. All of the colours really worked well together for a casual but fun look.

You can never go wrong with a two piece suit and this velvet one was simply to die for! I bet it was so comfy and warm to be trekking around London Fashion Week in. The blouse and bow added even more elegance to an already sophisticated, classic outfit. To see even more of Eva's style click here for her Instagram.

I hope you enjoyed these outfits as much as I did! Comment down below which is your favourite!

London Fashion Week Show: Niro Wang

Welcome back! 

Last week I posted about the House of MEA show and the Jeff Garner show and this week I am back again with another flux of fashion week posts.

Today I am going to be talking about the Niro Wang fashion show that I watched at the Freemason's Hall hosted by Fashion Scout. Niro Wang is a London based fashion house who specialise in linen. All of the clothes in the collection are eco-friendly, organic and of high quality.

The whole feel of the collection was very casual and built a bridge between urban and country. The colour palette was natural and earthy while the silhouettes of the clothes were loose and relaxed. 

The collection, although lacking in textures, made up for it in large bold patterns. The patterns whilst reminiscent of the 80's still brought a feeling of modernity with it's muted colour palettes. 

Majority of the collection had an androgynous look nodding towards the genderless clothing lines of the future. Meanwhile the organic material of the clothes brought a modern bohemian vibe.

What is your favourite item from the Niro Wang collection? Comment below and stay tuned for more London Fashion Week posts. 

London Fashion Week Show: House of MEA

Welcome back!

If you saw my last fashion post than you know that I was lucky enough to attend London Fashion Week this year. I have already written a whole post dedicated to my favourite fashion show that I saw. However I went to quite a few more and thought it would be a shame not to share my experience and photos on here.

The show featured in this post is House of MEA (MEA standing for the middle east and asia). The show included designs from two designers; Felix Bendish and Rocky Star. Both designers, although inspired by the same part of the world, couldn't have had more different interpretations.

Kicking off the show was Felix Bendish. His collection was heavily influenced by fashion forward Japan. Acting as a canvas for the jewellery the structured but stunning apparel complemented the accessories beautifully. With dark city style inspired shades and sleek clean cuts the collection truly embodied east meets west. The more than statement jewellery pieces were larger than life with geometric designs and bold colours.

   

Wrapping up the show was Rocky Star's collection. Heavily inspired by the luxurious fabrics of India the catwalk was dominated by elaborate patterns, an array of rich colours and heavy structured fabrics. The texture variety created beautiful juxtapositions of sequins, furs and silks intertwined in patterns reminiscent of both Indian and Chinese culture; the perfect balance of eastern fashion. The silhouettes, however, were inspired by the everyday woman with blazers, midi skirts and scarves all making appearances. Finishing off each piece with carefully detailed embroidery the show was truly a royal display.

My Favourite London Fashion Week Show: Jeff Garner

Welcome back!

If you follow me on Twitter, Instagram and my other social media accounts then you probably know that I was lucky enough to attend London Fashion Week this month. I attended a handful of shows and thought that it would be great to do a feature on each them.

I thought I would start off with my favourite show. It was the Jeff Garner Prophetik show which took place on the Sunday and was hosted by Fashion Scout in the Freemasons Hall.

Jeff Garner is an American fashion designer and artist who was recently named as one of the hottest upcoming designers. Garner creates designs which are both eco-friendly and sustainable. 

The whole collection had a gothic and renaissance theme running throughout. I simply adored the lace, long silhouettes and sombre colours.  

Parts of the collection also had an androgynous feel with women sporting open shirts, waistcoats and loose wide leg trousers. 

The show also included some lingerie which felt rather sports inspired. Almost a nod to the classic Calvin Klein sets. 

Did you go to this show? What was your favourite piece? If not what was your favourite show at LFW16? Stay tuned for more London fashion week blog posts! (Note: My posts on House of MEA and Niro Wang are live now!)
