Mary Katrantzou LFW Show
In true Mary Katrantzou style, we were shown bold printed lampshade dresses and Louboutin heels; faultless structures and off the shoulder shapes. Mary really outdone herself with her evolved signature prints.
Her eccentric style has made this one of my favourite LFW shows.

Osman LFW Show!!!!
I must that I was truly impressed by the Osman show. The craftsmanship and detail that went into making such gorgeous pieces was Amazing. Osman managed to get the right balance between edgy and refined. Osman was able to put a new spin on old trends and brought something fresh to the runway.
My favorites had to be a pink dress that was pleated in the front; and a gorgeously structured White pleated dress. The show also included a mustard yellow knee length dress; knee length shorts and round neck tops; tailored black trousers; triangular necklines; box shoulders; skirt suits and elegant gowns.
The Collection was both girly and classic. Osman made wonderful use of the colour palette and managed to cater for every shape and figure.
Overall this was one of my favourite shows!!!

Unique LFW show!!!
After the anticipated wait for the Unique LFW show, I was not impressed!!!
It was evident that Unique were channelling the 70's but for me it did not work. The collection was not very coherent and were to many different themes going on.
Bold prints; sequined pants; fringed bags; long sleeved jumpers; printed leggings; red baby-doll style tops; flared trousers; big crimped hair and red statement lips.
The only thing that I did enjoy were the lace up platforms!!!

Betty Jackson LFW show!!!!
Betty Jackson has just showed her collection for LFW!!!
There was an array of colour... Beiges; Browns; Greens; Whites; Greys; Pinks and Yellows. Betty used strong 40's influences for this collections. We were shown a variety of different styles...loosely fitted cropped trousers; Stylish collotes with knitted jumpers; cutout shoulders; chunky necklaces; cute suitsuits; Feathered shrugs embelleshed with jewels;fringed jumpers and feather collars.
This collection was both Boyish and Girly; the perfect contradiction.
By far my favourites were a pair of cropped trousers with a Beige knitted jumper and a brown cord belt and a black coat with feathered shoulders .
Overall the collection was Amazing... one of my favourites of London Fashion Week so far!!!

Charlii Says...My UCA Essay!!!
“On a desert island the pigeon post will bring only one publication each month. Which one would you chose and why?”
I would chose the guardian , although being on my own island means that current affairs will not affect me, It will give me a sense of belonging, that I am part of a network of people, when I feel alone and keep me in touch with westernized society. The guardian is one of the last newspapers that delivers the facts, unlike tabloids which will have you believe almost anything. Arthur Miller was once quoted saying “ A good newspaper, I suppose, is a nation talking to itself”. the guardian offers many topics of conversation, and would appeal to me on a cultural and lifestyle note.
The idea of lying under the stars on the sandy beach with no land to be seen for miles and having a camp fire in the background accompanied by a symphony of waves, sounds quite ideal. Almost enchanting, but to have the pigeon post as my only form of communication with the outside world would make me feel like Harry
Potter in Hogwarts, the island being my own personal euphoria.
The guardian may seem like an unorthodox decision for one publication a month, when it is released daily, but It is not essential for me to know what’s going on in the world all the time. Once a month is enough to keep me informed, the bulk of the newspaper would also make good fuel for the fire. It is not only informative, but practical as well. I could never bring myself to burn a vogue, no matter how much my survival depends on it. The guardian will keep me informed on currents trends, without the painful stigma attached when being used for the fire.
You’re most probably wondering why I would possibly need to know current fashion trends on a desert island, but it is important to look the part when I am rescued, hopefully by a Mr Darcy type character. And knowing the current affairs will help me slot back into society as quickly as possible. It is important to be both stylish and informed in my opinion, I am both.

Charlii Says...Holly Fulton
Holly Fulton presents us with a fusion of the 60’s and futuristic Ideas. These contemporary pieces prove that although Holly Fulton may be a new-comer to fashion, she definitely knows her stuff. The collection is quite monotonous with hints of colours, accessorized with chunky cuffs, large printed clutches and deco clasps. Not many accessories are needed as the skyscrapers are embellished with crystals.
How to wear:
These ultra-trendy pieces are only suited on slender body types, as the material and cut will not sit well on curves. The geometric prints and bright yellows will also draw attention to any bulge. The short cut of the dresses will elongate legs, so make sure your tan is perfect. Wednesday, June 2, 2010
