My finds at London Fashion Week Autumn/ Winter 2011

Osman Autumn/ Winter 2011 Catwalk

From 18-22 February the fashion world descended on London to see the collections for Autumn/ Winter 2011.

My Fashion Week started with the catwalk show of Osman, an up and coming designer, whose lightness and texture moved me.

Alpine inspiration was palpable in the catwalk show that Meadham and Kirchhoff put on as an army of models marched down the catwalk.

Jean-Pierre Braganza was definitely someone who was tipped for success, unsurprisingly looking at the lightness of his dresses and the quality of the prints.

The presentations by Christian Blanken and Tim Soar were both a treat for the conceptual eye.


                                                                                                           Tim Soar uses the specialised fabric of military uniforms to create structure and strength.

There were an impressive number of ethical designers showing at the Estethica exhibition as well. It was East-London based label Dr. Noki who gathered a standing ovation this year. His NHS collection presented futuristic urban street wear from recycled fabrics.
