We Are Back!!!

We are back!

It has been a while and life has taken us on many adventures and travels but we are finally back in London and ready to pick up where we left off.

Since our last post in January there have been so many fashion events, shows and happenings that we have missed but rather than look back ...we are focussed on the new season that is coming up.

We arrived back in town in time to catch up on London Collections Men - a great opportunity to meet up with old friends and new designers. Since last season LCM seems to have generated even more interest from press and buyers - there seemed to be more of a buzz about the event and recognition for it as a permanent event on the fashion calendar.

We are hastily compiling our images so that we can share our favourite shows with you ....so watch this space. We are also
popping over to Paris to visit Tranoi so looking forward to seeing what exciting new mens brands they have to show too.

In the meantime we look forward to seeing you all soon at Fashion Weeks                                      

Fashion Icon Kate Moss Celebrates 40th Birthday

Today we raise a glass to the inspirational Kate Moss as she celebrates her 40th birthday

London Collections: Men now a serious contender

After a tricky start it now seems that London Collections: Men has found a formula that works and there was a much more positive buzz about this edition

The schedule seemed a lot more organized this season and offered a broad range of activity with exhibitions, seminars, film screenings, events and parties in addition to the shows. There was also a lot of activity around the main show schedule with a full calendar of off schedule activities and a general drive to promote British men’s wear from Savile row to the high street

Our favs this season include KTZ, Christopher Shannon, Ada + Nik plus the awesome Katie Eary with her neon animal prints and mickey mouse ears.

London Collections Men - up and running

It seems a really early start on the fashion calendar with the Christmas decorations still up and the New Year hangover only just fading - but LCM has kicked off in style with the Dolce & Gabbana party this evening. 

Over the next three days LCM will feature over 130 designers hosting shows, presentation and events. The Designer Showrooms has nearly doubled in size and will showcase collections by 54 designers. Highlights on the event schedule include a Dolce Gabbana event, an opening party by Esquire; a reception at Liberty hosted by Men’s Health and YMC; a dinner hosted by Jonathan Newhouse and a Tommy Hilfiger and a Mulberry event. On Wednesday 8th January the BFC Fash/On Film initiative, sponsored by River Island will showcase five of the year’s best films at a screening at the Old Sorting Office. These include a film introduced by Alex Bilmes, Alex Mattsson AW14, palmer//harding AW14 and Joseph Turvey in collaboration with the River Island Design Forum. The showcase will close with a London Collections: Men GQ dinner hosted by Dylan Jones and Anya Hindmarch.

We are sorting though our tickets and fixing our schedule over the next three days and though we may not be here for a couple of days -  we will be back soon with news from the shows !

Enjoy LC:M
