September is the best month of the year for me. ย It’s still a little warm from the Summer, we have Vogues bumper September Issue to feed on and we have Autumn/Winter ย wear to dive into, coats, boots, hats. ย Best of all London host’s one of my favourite events, London fashion Week.
September is also my birthday month and my wedding anniversary. I always feel a littleย blessed in September, and the sun usually shines.
Shine it did for this London Fashion Week, where I’ve seen a good mix of our home grown talent.
Ones to watch gave us new structure on old vibes. ย More on these fresh new designers soon.
Paul Costelloe went back to basics with Irish Linen. With amazingly understated linenย brilliance. ย Amazing shapes and all from one material.
Pam Hogg did her own (very good) thing with all things rock and roll. (This catwalk is just as much a party as a show). ย It has the best rock outfits and the best audience to rock stars and rock chic’s to boot!
And the rest, Preen, Belstaff, Ashley Isham, ย all so good for us involved in Uk fashion. ย Even if you don’tย get FROW, and I don’t always, it’s such a charismaticย industry to support and report on.
The fashion economy in the UKย is now worth an estimated ยฃ50 Billion a year. It’s not to be sniffed at folks.
Hurrayย for LFW. We do this well!
