C’est Ci Nes Pas Une Chambre

I HAVE INTERNET! Finally, the joys of speedy surfing brought to me by o2. I tried to post before using my dongle but it just turned all my posts into a jibbering mess of html nonsense.

Anyway I wanted to post this the day after her show but my internet blew up in a puff of anti-social smoke. Here it is anyway just because I love it so much.

Mary Katrantzo's first stand alone show entitled 'This Is Not A Room' completely blew me away. It's definitely my favourite Spring/Summer 2011 collection by far. The bold hyper-realistic digital prints used depict futuristic rooms on luxurious fabrics. These surreal lampshade skirts adorned with beads and jewels work in a way I never imagined possible.

Basso and Brooke s/s 2011

I wish I was there in London running frantically from show to show shmoozing along with all the glamorous guests. But I'm not, I'm in Edinburgh sniveling from a post summer cold haphazardly preparing for my eventual trip back to London, post LFW excitement. One day I'll nab an invite until then I bring you the most delicious pieces from my favourite collections.

Bright and early this morning, while I was still in bed, Basso and Brooke debuted their Spring Summer 2011 collection. A dreamy mix of digital prints covered a variety of dainty dresses. A softer more pastel based pallet compromised this collection in comparison to a/w creating a more feminine approach.

Bide me over..

Sass and Bide premiered their new collection last night at London Fashion Week. Deliciously delicate digital prints adorned the fine garments. Ruffled neck pieces gloriously contrasted against the sleek silk dresses creating a dynamic collection. Consisting of earthy tones with a couple of fiery pieces combined to create a soft fresh look. What particularly drew me to this show is that time and time again Sass and Bide produce a unique yet wearable collection.I also simply love their style, it's completely me- I can imagine (wistfully) myself in every outfit.
