Beautiful People AW20

Beautiful People AW20

The Beautiful People AW20 collection was inspired by a fusion of traditional European styles and modern urban fashion, with a focus on creating pieces that are both beautiful and functional. The designs were a mix of timeless classics, such as elegant coats and tailored suits, as well as more modern, edgy styles, such as oversized sweaters and statement pieces. The color palette was muted, with a focus on earthy tones, such as olive green, camel, and navy blue, which added a touch of sophistication to the pieces.

Psychotic Yet Beguiling

Psychotic Yet Beguiling

The blue cropped cardigan with the feathers around the neck and cuffs. This one piece took me all the way back to the mid 90s where streetwear and Lolita-esque style meshed seamlessly in every glossy (or matte pages if you’re an “artsy” publication) magazine and in the streets.

I'll Take One of Each!

I'll Take One of Each!

One can easily emulate an “I’m with the band” vibe with a Magda Butrym rouched velvet dress. If I can have just one outfit from this collection I think I’d feel like a million bucks and insist on standing at the entrance with those It girls.

Art is Always Evolving

Art is Always Evolving

Attendees came in with their cameras in hand snapping away, only stopping to grab a glass of champagne. I had no idea when to stop taking pictures, there was just so much to see. When the models finally emerged, I knew I was in trouble…

Karim of Morrocco

Karim of Morrocco

We had a very in depth guided tour of his collection by two of the most attentive and knowledgeable staff that I have ever encountered. You know that these two not only loved the collection, they loved the designer as well.

Where am I Going?

Where am I Going?

Eventually all the models were out and weaving in and out of the maze of mirrors in a surreal world that felt like a dream that is taking place in an imaginary metro station somewhere. Each commuter in high end outerwear that makes even those who don’t fare well in the cold want to explore extended amounts of time in it.

Let's Play Dress Up

Let's Play Dress Up

The abundance of character in these designs remind me of a little girl playing dress up. Every single item is exuberantly fabulous and it is all thrown together to articulate individuality in style. There is no holding back on the creativity.

Crazy Rich Asians

Crazy Rich Asians

Outside of the show the usual suspects arrive at the venue. Guests dressed to the nines, heavy hitting influencers and major publications alike wave their invitations in front of organizers checking the guest list. The main event outside seems to be a tiny Yorkie that all of the paparazzi are taking pictures of.

Russian Tourist Visiting Italy in the 1980s

Russian Tourist Visiting Italy in the 1980s

The whimsical nature of this collection is evident in the designer. A warm and welcoming Maria Tokmakova speaks about her collection with a sense of humor that is often missing in fashion lately. The nostalgia of the 80s does not overtake the collection, it remained very of today.

Giving Me Looks

Giving Me Looks

Milo Maria AW19 walks a fine line between inspiration and aspiration. The inspired soft, dreamy pink fur coat stood alongside an aspirational red power suit. A mix of aesthetics and patterns keep this collection ever-moving in and out of fantasy and wearability.

Walking Sex

Walking Sex

THE little black dress strolled down the runway with a sheer boned bodice, feather trims, high slit…it sat beautifully off the shoulders of the model. At this point I knew the collection was going to be sexy, confident, celebratory and luxurious.

Black Sheep...or Duck

Black Sheep...or Duck

Uooya is a Chinese term that translates to “black duck”, which is equivalent to the western “black sheep”. Based on Chinese streetwear, this line is as rich in colors and textures as the culture is.

A Story of Detection

A Story of Detection

This season, Jan takes his signature aesthetics to a story of detection. “The Game of Detection” AW19 begins with a train containing dinosaur fossils. A cast of characters including a buyer, a painter, a gambler, a thief and the police all come together to form the fashion edition of the game, Clue.

I Get This!

I Get This!

There was an overwhelming sense of an “I GET this!” feeling when I saw cult Korean label pushBUTTON’s runway show at London Fashion Week.

Minimalistic Femininity

Minimalistic Femininity

London based designer Marta Jabukowski is the epitome of minimalistic femininity. Her AW19 collection was nothing short of feminine power. The color palette was confident. Browns and reds dominated the staple black pieces.

Moon Lake Serenade

Moon Lake Serenade

Ryan Lo’s “Moon Lake Serenade!” at the Dutch Hall is what dreams are made of. Retro kawaii has never been quite celebrated in this manner in recent London Fashion Week history.

First Woman in Space

First Woman in Space

This season’s Bora Aksu I am delighted to see the continuity of the dark twist on romanticism but with a fresh injection of futuristic themes as this collection is dedicated to Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space.
