Now Christopher Kane... WOW!!! Simple silhouette, very simple, but the 3-D effect he got with the fabric manipulation (specially with the lace panels), and the sexual connotation he got from these "curious" images. A couple of tailored suits. It just started with very simple, yet well taillored suits, and then BOOM!!!---

The funny thing of all this is that most of pieces are high necked and below the knee... but with a high sexual content. That antagony is strangely explosive, and it is certainly a conversation piece wherever you go. I loved this collection, technically and because of the"confusing vibe" it generated. Quite an impressive work.
Giles... MY GILES!!! What a show!!! Darker than ever. The collection itself offered a well achieved tailoring, the psychedelic prints to which we are used to see on Giles' shows, and well executed pieces made out of patented leather with very high standards.
The show itself was ominous, inspired by the spirits of the posh ladies will surely haunt the Chelsea Physic Garden, many "beautiful ghost" - Andreja Pejic back to the catwalk after her transition, Lily Donaldson and Jessica Stam, Jacquetta Wheeler for instance - and an amazing Anna Cleveland, who wore this cocktail dress impeccably, and that definitely stole the show. Some color going on, but monochromatic pieces definitely stood out. Amazing show, as always.

Antonio Berardi. Jonathan Saunders and Peter Pilotto offered feminine pieces, well executed and so flatttering to the female body. Prints in pieces designed by Jonathan Saunders and Peter Pilotto were outstanding, brilliant actually. Lots of pencil shapes and textiles such as velvet, knits and embroidered pieces all the way. I'll see lots of these worn on the streets and on the events for sure (well, not in my homeland, you know, but in magazines and TV at least :).

David Koma offered an amazing feminine silhouette as well, but I must highlight the amazing work he does with fabric treatment. He's so versatile with his materials' manipulation, and the sexiness of his pieces is undeniable. I loved the exposed zipper he used in some of the pieces. A nice touch.

I must confess that I have two presentations that are my pampered ones during LFW.
The reason? Is that I see myself sitting on a Costa shop or a pub near the tube, watching all this army of empowered smart women of different nationalities, working in London, wearing practical fashion, with high quality and standards of design, despite its minimalist and clean shapes. That is precisely what Emilia Wickstead, Margaret Howell and Barbara Casasola offer. I love what they do both, especially what Barbara Casasola brought to her collection this time: a lot of experimentation with simple forms, that evoke oriental themes and the use of leather for the first time. Very well done to both.

Thank you London, you rocked once again!
Regarding Milano, I am more than ready to see Marni, Bottega Veneta and my favorite of all times Prada.
A bit curious about what Gucci is bringing with Alessandro Michelle at the helm. We'll see!
