LC:M A/W '14 // Monday Hightlights!

So LC:M started with a bang on Monday opening with some incredible shows. A day full of Lou Dalton, Astrid Anderson, Topman Design, Hardy Amies, Jonathan Saunders, MAN, Lee Roach and Richard Nicoll. A few of which definitely caught my attention!

The majority of the Astrid show I liked and thought was interesting but the main look to capture my attention had to be this bright blue. If any highstreet labels choose to take anything from LC:M I sure hope it's this colour! I also love how the blue looks over the top of this white which seems to be the perfect way to dress it.

I was lucky enough to be a part of the MAN show and dress for Bobby Abley, hence picking the two models I dressed. For me Bobby Abley delivered what I thought was such an interesting collection, clearly inspired by Sleeping Beauty and the queen that is Maleficent his collection was definitely a dark fantasy. One of the main things I love about the collection is the fabrics used and how wearable they are!  

  

Craig Green another member of the MAN trio presented an equally interesting collection, a mixture of dark layering and colourful explosions it was such a special sight. Personally I prefer the darker all black looks but I think Craig Green managed this duality and a balance well, neither of the lights/darks overpower each other and also work together well.

I also LOVED some of these pieces from Richard Nicoll! The red jacket has to be one of my favourite pieces from the whole colletion, I also love the floral blue jacket pattern but the blue again coming through in another collection. Richard Nicoll ended his show with some brightly coloured ruffled shirts, all three of which are brilliant! 

These are my favourite looks from the Monday shows but I have to say Monday was clearly a brilliant start to open the LC:M shows with. I'd probably have to say my favourite of all the shows was the MAN show, Craig Green and Bobby Abley were just spectacular!
