The fashion crowd moves fast. From New York to London and now Milan, the spring/summer 2010 looks are on full display. Unfortunately, between course readings and paper proposals I can't quite keep up, so you must forgive my fashion faux pas as I fill you in on London.....a week late.
The London catwalk saw designs from all realms this season. Chirstopher Kane, most recently of the ubiquitous screaming safari shirts, seen on editors and ingenues alike, changed gears, showing muted gingham creations of all varieties, while Paul Smith was a real wild child, with his twists, ties and layers, and of course the artful draping in luxe sherbet colours that made an appearance courtesy of the quintessential Brit brand, Burberry.
Once again, my favourite show was from a relatively new up and comer, Erdem. I must confess that I am not normally a fan of spring/summer, but his ultra-feminine frocks have me re-thinking my fall favouritism.
Now normally, flower appliqué and taffeta with a lace overlay would conjure up bridesmaid images of the worst kind, but in this case, Erdem blew that all away with his subtle take on surrealism. From the shoes to the glasses and of course the dresses, he doesn't miss a beat. With that said, I am already looking forward to Erdem's vision for fall.
