London FW07 Fashion Week Wrapup I

To be honest, I haven't been too inspired with the latest FW07 offerings. They all look very dark, grungy and baggy- not quite my thing. But anyway, here's my assessment of this week's show.

Preen
Preen have always been simple and oh so casual chic to me.

But this season, besides these few looks that is cool and chic (albeit a bit boring), everything else looks either. . .
robotic
or like a bag lady.

Aquascutum
Aquascutum on the other hand, was much more to my taste.

They had the more classic ladylike and simple pieces which I like.
And the more adventurous looks that are different but still very feminine and ladylike. Got to love the capes!

Biba
My favourite collection this week was Biba. While we may have seen some of these designs before, I am loving how they are flattering to the figure, feminine and fun.
The simple yet chic shift dress. The silk shirts. The tights. Who can get enough of that?
Perfect for casual, work to a night out!
Love Love Love it! She looks sooo cool and chic in that trench!

  4. I agree...New York Fashion Week was great, but London left me uninspired. I was really disappointed with the Christopher Kane collection.

  5. Aquascutum nailed it more me. None of the others though. The more I follow fashion the more difficult I am to please!

  8. Actually, London Fashion Week was overshadowed by the controversies that surrounded it. The size zero debate, Julien Macdonald's fur designs, etc.

  9. The trench is very glamorous and very, very sexy.
