LC:M A/W 14 // Tuesday Highlights!

Another day of LC:M and even more shows for everyone to enjoy, after the joys of Monday everyone seemed super excited to see what Tuesday was going to deliver! Apologies for lateness but with illness and interning theres less time for my blog

// JW Anderson // 

  

These have to be my fave three of all the JW Anderson looks, I wasn't as sold on the collection as a whole but I LOVE these they're just so bright and interesting. JW Anderson interests me so much mainly because of how far he seems to push the boundaries of menswear and although sometimes it might be too much for some people it's cool to see that played with.

// Alexander McQueen // 

 

McQueen is always going to be something interesting and I think this is definitely one of my more liked McQueen shows. I think it's got a lot of what Lee had before he passed, it's quite dark and there seems a lot of depth to the collection, although I do love the pink tartan and just the flashes of gold in there to totally switch it up too!

// Kit Neale // 



Kit Neale always serves something fun and playful and that's what I love about fashion, having fun with garments everything not being too serious. Colour is obviously a way to win with me and this hits that all over, I also love how Kit takes inspiration from places in London almost trying to capture the little areas and communities. 

LCM has definitely delivered some brilliant things and I know Wednesday has just as many brilliant collections!

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! 

// Astrid Anderson //

 

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.

// MAN // 

  

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.

// Richard Nicoll // 

 

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!
