London Fashion Week

I am so excited as I am going to be helping out with the dressing of the models for a catwalk at London Fashion Week! It will be for the OnOff Catwalk which is now in it's 10th season at Fashion Week, showcasing on and off schedual designers' work. This year collections from a number of designers are being promoted. I am really interested to see..

Sado
Italian Designer Carlotta Gherzi. The main themes in her collections are nature and movement. She uses high quality silk, wool, cashmere and suede, and creates complex and elaborate elements within the pieces. Generally they are practical and unique in form with playful lines and shapes. The designer claims "I create clothes that come alive on the body. They are not for the wardrobe but for real life".
Rocky S
Seams to already be a well established brand with a wide range of lines including Women's RTW, Couture, 'Club' - a younger and more affordable diffusion line, Homeware and Perfume. The brand looks really sharp but classical, often taking traditional Indian inspirations from his roots.

Osman Yousefzada
Classical and timeless pieces playing with drapery and giving them a quirky edge.

Olivia Rubin
Youthful and exciting ladieswear, historically inspired shapes, bold prints and colours. Very wearable pieces for a young, fun and fashion-concious woman.
Emilio de la Morena
Body-con shapes, considered colour palettes, again very chic and wearable garments with fashion forward flair.
