London Fashion Week (LFW) is less than one week away and it is fair to say that I am already bubbling over in excitement. The show schedule is bursting with Legends of fashion as well as up-and-comers set to showcase their latest Autumn/Winter collections. As well as that, over 100 designer brands will take part in the exhibition, all showing off their latest and greatest pieces. It is an event I’ve always dreamt of going to and thanks to Frost Magazine, I hold an “access all areas pass”!
So, what can I expect? Catwalk Shows, Presentations and Parties are all part of the schedule, creating the perfect stage for us British to show off our talents to the rest of the world. It is also certain to deliver some controversy, drama and headline making mayhem…although I do hope we don’t see any poor models fall on the Catwalk again. Other expectations I have are, of lots of noise, colour and eccentric people surrounding me and I cannot wait for it all to start!
Fashion-Lover, Keshini Misha, who is also writing about LFW for Frost, brought up the very good question of, What to Wear? Those three words have been running through my mind too and I’m sure most of this week will be spent selecting the perfect outfits. In fact, I have to admit that this element of fashion week is actually something I am extremely excited about. Not me stressing about what to wear but, getting to see the variety of fashion choices others will make. It is what I love most about fashion really; how people dress as an extension of themselves and their personalities. I think it is a shame to see someone dress in something for its name or for the social status it brings. It is far more interesting and impressive to see those who dress for themselves and throw outfits together in ways others wouldn’t imagine! Each day I will snap pictures of the best dressed people I see to share with you as well as fill you in on all the latest trends, hottest designers and naughtiest gossip!
Until it all begins…
