London Fashion Week Day 1: Teatum Jones

Its fashion week. And as I have said in the past London is the one of the best Fashion weeks only just behind Paris move over New York, London is were the talent is New up and coming as well as timeless classic designers. 
I will be blogging about some of the live stream shows through out fashion week and will also about any other shows that catch my eye through the week so stay tuned for London Fashion Week Fun.

First up is Teatum Jones which I am so excited for. 
Here we go....

So I just finished watching the Live stream of Teatum Jones Show and wow amazing.  
Its starts with a powerful video of people talking about acceptance being yourself and not letting people and religion stand in your way. It was so powerful and moving a great way to start the show. 

The show started after the video and it gave the whole show a powerful vibe. The catwalk was fresh and exciting and felt to me a lot like a show of a young graduate show it was very nice.
The garments were wearable but stand out and different. 

Its stared with a lot of silk and femininity lots of weightless and movement. I loved the sculpting to the body of the lace straps. The blues, pinks and purples so delightful in clashing prints. 

Sheer skirt with wave details so amazing. Then a simplistic green dress with a powerful green leather jacket.
I adored the powerful white shirt to follow, and then the corset dress. I loved the use of the open gap on the side of a few pieces at the end trimmed with tiny pom poms.  The end pieces I loved with the powerful patched lines, creating an almost contouring effect. The use of peplums and soft pleating created a controlled femininity and a power.

Over all I loved how the show flowed.With each section of the show linking back to each part in unique ways. It was interesting how they also added in a few men's outfits and it came with the feeling that more mens fashion is to come in future shows across fashion week.  The show was amazing and the garments were astounding. This Show went from strength to strength. 

Biba Exhibition

I went to a local fashion exhibition and being London fashion exhibition crazy I had limit expectations compared to what I am used to in London but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. It was small but it didn't feel empty or over crowed and they had some gorgeous vintage 60s pieces in there from Biba brand a brand from the 60s aimed at young women who wanted to be trendy but on a budget and the clothing came in the post. I love the lacy dress especially and tailored coats. 

If your in southend from now to January 17th I recommending heading down there its short and sweet and did I mention free so its really worth while. Its in two parts fashion and then lifestyle in the museum next to it. 

Wayward Western

I would like to apologize for the lack posts over the summer, I had plan (sigh) to post like a crazy person over the summer but my university project took over and although it pains me that had to take priority. I will be post more as I am currently working out a schedule so please stick around for more Fashion Crazy Me!

River Island is doing it take on western I have to say I love it and I cant get enough of the collection trying to choose my favourite pieces for this post is was a struggle to choose the best ones. What I love is the pieces well integrate seamlessly into the rest of your wardrobe so its not a novelty piece which you only wear once. It enough to embrace the western trend but not to go overboard and your walking around people are looking at you thinking; Well where's your horse then?

Behold the Body

The body suit has made a come back a few years back. Never really making an impact. Since then the have just been there in the background not really doing much. Personally I have never been interested in them and I felt my money was better spent of a stunning skirt or top or even a decent pair of jeans. But recently the high street has stepped up its game when t came to body suits. In my shopping travels found my self finding some really stunning body suits before they were a meh boring and just done... but now they have a more sexy and edgy quality. So I think now is the time to get them while they are hot!
