KNIT - Pure & Simple

It can be a hard look to carry off but when it works...it works. The trend for head to toe knit was evident in the pre collections presented by Joseph and Stella McCartney for Pre Fall.

LFW & MFW - Street Style

Sorry for my absence. I have a lot of projects on at the moment and I need a really good wifi connection to be able to work on my blog, some hotels really need to sort it out! The next few months are really busy with trips to NY, Hong Kong and India so please bare with me. 

I have been going over the collections, what are your thoughts? I think a lot of brands have really pushed embroidery and applique work this season, its really exciting to see new techniques. Also, sheer layering guys...ORGANZA is a new craze, its everywhere!

Before I delve any deeper, here are my selection of street style snaps which I am loving, and would happily rock up in at the studio.

Christopher Kane Bought By PPR

There's been a lot of speculation surrounding Christopher Kane the past few months. After stepping down from his design role at Versace's sister line 'Versus'. There were numerous rumours circulating he was in talks with Balenciaga but...now all can be revealed. 

PPR the luxury conglomerate who has accelerated the growth of luxury fashion houses such as Stella McCartney & Gucci has acquired a 51% stake in the label. I can't quite imagine how Christopher feels and his sister/business partner Tammy. 

This definitely proves that hard work, determination and above all pushing creative boundaries doesn't go unnoticed!
Hip Hip Hooray to the Kane duo!

Stella McCartney PF12 Inspiration

I wonder if Stella and her design team were inspired by the book

'A Visual History of Typefaces & Graphic Styles' for their Pre Fall 12 embroidery?

I think so, they are gorgeous books cover to cover showcasing the modern evolution of the printed letter.

I need to order Volume 2...pronto!

Stella McCartney Dinner Dance, London.

My VIP invitation must have been misplaced, thankfully the London Evening Standard kept me in the loop on my late tube home. At the beginning of the week Stella threw a black-tie dinner & presentation at One Mayfair to launch her exclusive London Evening Collection for Fall 2012. 

There was a surprising after dinner performance which included new face models and the greats in a choreographed dance extravaganza.
