Suit versus (track)suit; ever since it started in 2012, that opposition has become the default shorthand to summarise London’s menswear event. Every season, the schedule is neatly split down the centre - old-school elegance on the one side, avant-garde rebellion on the other. Of late, however, it’s felt as though streetwear’s been gaining the upper hand. The rise of labels like Cottweiler,...
Nostalgia, it’s a bit of a thing at LCM. Of course fashion goes hand in hand with it – that’s where we all get inspiration from at one point or another. So yesterday we had Bobby Abley plundering the Disney archive for Aladdin references; today Agi & Sam kicked things off with a collection that...
Nostalgia, it’s a bit of a thing at LCM. Of course fashion goes hand in hand with it – that’s where we all get inspiration from at one point or another. So yesterday we had Bobby Abley plundering the Disney archive for Aladdin references; today Agi & Sam kicked things off with a collection that riffed on homespun charm and had a hint of granny chic about it, playing with that magpie-dressing...
Over the last few seasons, something inevitable - and yet, till recently, unthinkable - has happened. London’s position as the fashion system’s unruly, volatile youngest sibling, bursting with energy and ideas, has been challenged. And, accustomed as the city is to defining itself against...
Over the last few seasons, something inevitable - and yet, till recently, unthinkable - has happened. London’s position as the fashion system’s unruly, volatile youngest sibling, bursting with energy and ideas, has been challenged. And, accustomed as the city is to defining itself against American commerce, Italian glitz, or French sophistication, the shift has provoked something of an identity...
The menswear schedule is slimmer; there’s no this name or that name showing (notably Alexander McQueen, Tom Ford, Burberry): this is what has prefaced menswear this season – in all honesty a slight sense of negativity. Which seems a little odd, frankly. While womenswear seems to be experiencing a...
The menswear schedule is slimmer; there’s no this name or that name showing (notably Alexander McQueen, Tom Ford, Burberry): this is what has prefaced menswear this season – in all honesty a slight sense of negativity. Which seems a little odd, frankly. While womenswear seems to be experiencing a little bit of a wobble, menswear seems to be the most solid and exciting option right now,...

For the best part of the last decade, London’s status as (revived) world fashion capital has come firmly stamped with the initials C.S.M. Led by its formidable professor Louise Wilson, Central Saint Martins’ MA course in Fashion Design became a byword for wildly inventive, deeply compelling visions, and its graduates - Christopher Kane, Sarah Burton, Mary Katrantzou, Roksanda Ilincic, Phoebe...
The big fashion question that's still left unanswered is: who's filling the Dior job ever since Raf Simons left it up for grabs last October? We still don't know for certain, but what we do know is that it's not letting Dior get distracted. A full-on Dior takeover came to town yesterday as a...
The big fashion question that's still left unanswered is: who's filling the Dior job ever since Raf Simons left it up for grabs last October? We still don't know for certain, but what we do know is that it's not letting Dior get distracted. A full-on Dior takeover came to town yesterday as a whammy of events were celebrated: its new and stunning flagship store on Bond Street (four stories...

WOW, does front-row chatter spread: there was one prevailing topic of conversation taking place at this season’s São Paulo Fashion Week and that was the “see now, buy now” phenomena that started back at the international collections with Burberry and Tom Ford – and subsequently everyone else for that matter, be it to little or large extent – and which is set to be the instigated format for the...

HOLY GRAILS, there are certainly a couple of those in fashion. And it usually starts with Prada in Milan and ends with Comme des Garcons in Paris. The grail in question: what does “it” all mean? What are they trying to say? What are they trying to tell us? What? Why?

HOLY GRAILS, there are certainly a couple of those in fashion. And it usually starts with Prada in Milan and ends with Comme des Garcons in Paris. The grail in question: what does “it” all mean? What are they trying to say? What are they trying to tell us? What? Why?
There are few shows and brands that prompt this line of questioning quite so much as these two (and while we’re...
For the passengers flying to The Russian Federation, the local airline announced that only one piece of hand luggage was allowed on board. However, if one wants to blend in, that baggage rule should actually be interpreted as only one Vuitton or Goyard carry-on and a duty-free shopping bag,...
For the passengers flying to The Russian Federation, the local airline announced that only one piece of hand luggage was allowed on board. However, if one wants to blend in, that baggage rule should actually be interpreted as only one Vuitton or Goyard carry-on and a duty-free shopping bag, preferably Chanel, Prada or Dior (the bigger the size the better, and we know it does matter). Indeed,...
This is possibly the first season there is no real answer to what has now become something of an over-prescriptive question. In case you hadn’t noticed, fashion is in flux right now – which means our wardrobes will be too. Next season will be, to some degree, seasonless. And you’ll be able to...
This is possibly the first season there is no real answer to what has now become something of an over-prescriptive question. In case you hadn’t noticed, fashion is in flux right now – which means our wardrobes will be too. Next season will be, to some degree, seasonless. And you’ll be able to swipe what you see straight from the catwalk while at the same time taking for a spin what you saw this...
