LFW Part Two

Today we finish our look back at London fashion week. We will be looking at Burberry, Peter Pilotto, and Tom Ford. 

Burberry 



With just being promoted to CEO it seems that Chris Bailey is on his game. This collection was based on the girls in the Bloombury Group. 
 It was very boho with great airy fabrics, florals and those great hand painted trench coats. 
Burberry recently partnered with the trust that works to preserve the Charleston the estate that functioned as the Bloombury Groups home.
It really showed through this collection that Bailey is very involved with protected this part of history.





Peter Pilotto 



With the Target collaboration not doing so well, the runway show was pretty good. Personally it wasn't
 great but it wasn't bad either, it was just what it was a Pilotto show. He had some great prints and nice minimal dress. I feel as if they need to step back and re look at the design and have some fun with the clothes. 
It felt as if they were going through the motions, almost as if it was force. 
With that being said the show was good with some great pieces.






















Tom Ford 






Fur, Velvet, Sequins, Turtle Necks, Prints, Cowboy Boots and Tom Ford. 
This collection was everything (literally) a girl could want with a studio 54 swing on it. Fords collection this year was very 60's inspired and with that came the fun. 
Lets just say I need the sequin jersey and to now listen to Jay Z.

LFW Part One

London is calling! I absolutely love London fashion week, and London as a whole. Love the great television shows, the royal family, the food, and who can pass up a good british accent. Some of my favourite YouTubers and bloggers are british. Aside of that the fashion was great on and off the runway. 
This week I will be reviewing some of my favourite shows of the London. 



Temperley London 





This collection was described as "Funky" and that is what it was. Great floral prints, oversized scarfs and sweaters in some great fabrications.  Some of the designs also had a Downton Abby feel as well with lace and light and airy fabrics.  























Matthew Williamson



With the show about to fill up with the A list front row so was the venue across the street on a red carpet. Limos were pulling up unveiling the top movie actors including Brad and Angelina, Leonardo and how can I leave out Prince William. 
Due to some scheduling conflict Matthew Williamson had to have his show with the BAFTA awards on the same day. However this did not stop the fashion world filling up the show to see the new collection.
Williamson has been slowly moving away from the boho vibe and going into the working women. At the end of the collection it came together with a little bit of both boho and working girl. There was one piece that had everyones attention, the ostrich feather dress. Williamson mentioned that those pieces were "The most expensive dresses I ever produced."
