Having spent some time in Berlin this summer, I had the opportunity to experience the city’s diverse fashion culture. From the array of vintage stores and huge markets to designer boutiques and commercial malls, this buzzing city really has it all and is fast becoming a significant asset to global fashion. The emergence of Berlin Fashion Week has assisted in...

Hands up right now, I love William Tempest, and after being slightly disappointed with his ill fitting collection last season I was very excited to see his Spring/Summer 2010 offering. The catwalk was suitably packed but sadly started an hour late, however, it was worth the wait. Gorgeous structured dresses strutted down the catwalk in fabulous metallic grey and coral...

This show had a very starry front row. Not only was Peaches Geldof, Jade Parfitt, Erin O’Connor and Tamsin Egerton there but David Walliams also put in an appearance. However it wasn’t any of these who caused the catwalk to fall into mass excitement, but instead it was the presence of fashion royalty. Yes Anna Wintour was there looking as polished as ever. But back...

Mulberry put on a special show for their S/S10 collection, which was held in the grand Claridges. Inspired by Sofia Coppola’s ‘Virgin Suicides’ and Tim Walker’s photography, Mulberry gave us a “dreamy take on schoolgirl crushes and fairground iconography, sharpened with teen angst.” That’s a statement and a half, but they sure lived...

Last night saw the exclusive Mulberry party at Claridges as the designer label celebrated it’s S/S10 London Fashion Week presentation. Hosted in the Ballroom at Claridges, the party’s décor drew inspiration from the S/S10 collection and featured the same pastel-pearl balloons and carousel horses that were used in the show, as well as having traditional fairground...

Tight, tight and super tight. Aminaka Wilmont went beyond body con and created a whole new level of cling. Yes there was Lycra, yet the cuts were short and tight but no it wasn’t slutty, instead it was beautiful and feminine. In a collection inspired by dancers and industrial spaces, soft colour palettes were set against laser cut pieces and their trademark prints....

Put together just a few short weeks ago, the BBC Blast project fashionistas have really thrown themselves into their working fashion roles proving the kids are more than alright. In preparation for a look-book for their show at Fashion Week, the group ran their own professional photo shoot at the Whitechapel centre - a decadent disused Victorian school just off Commercial...

Marc Jacobs is dreading New York Fashion Week. The US fashion designer admits the extra work involved in showcasing his collection is very stressful for him. When asked if he is excited about next month’s prestigious event, he replied: “No. Do I enjoy it? Enjoy is a weird word. It’s work - work is more what it’s about. It’s not fun.” Although...

Sass and Bide will celebrate its 10th anniversary at London Fashion week. The quirky Australian clothing label will return to the British fashion scene this September to pay tribute to the city where designers Sarah-Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton founded the business idea. The designers said: “Ten years ago the concept for Sass and Bide was born in London. To be returning...
