London Fashion Week - Day 1

Jean – Pierre Braganza Spring/Summer 2015
I was lucky enough to get tickets to see Jean – Pierre Braganza catwalk show. There was a very impressive celebrity turn out from Made in Chelsea cast to the Little Miss members.

He describes his collection as “exploring the accidental elegance of industrial design and abstract expressionism, the point where randomness and consideration intersect.” To be honest I have no clue what he is talking about but his collect is definitely random.

The show started off with a series of geometric colour-block garments with a sporty feel to them. The collection was almost entirely monochrome with hints of pink, purple and blue.  A mixture of prints also appeared in the collection with pleated garments the resembled folded napkins.  

The Highlights:
The crush velvet quilted jacket is definitely my favourite piece. It actually looked more purple on the catwalk.




See the rest of his collection here.. 


Daniela Barros and João Melo Costa SS15

Daniela Barros collection had some really nice elements. 
She uses a lot of layering in her designs mixing chiffon fabric 
with opaque fabric and uses a lot of interesting fastenings 
and cut-outs. I definitely think she a designer to watch out for!

I did not think much of Joao Melo Costa collection. It was literally pieces of tissue and wrapping paper thrown onto models
and stuck down, like a child playing dress up.

But anyway you can take a look for yourself:
