Lowdown.
this is gonna be a doozee.
Ok so day 1 looked a bit like this
The head of the British Fashion Council gave a heartfelt speech about Alexander McQueen and we had a minute's silence - shortly joined by Sarah Brown.
Paul Costello:
Lots of metallics, coppers etc.
Quite womanly tailoring with patterns and stuff.
Some style scouting outside.
I like this tights and socks combo. There's been lots of tight detail lately, polka dots, hearts, houses, stripes, safety pins, all sorts.
This guy's beard looked like a french pastry.
This person wasn't even AT fashion week, she was outside. These shoes are everything the Ashish for topshop ones want to be. And more.
A couple of DJs called the Broken Hearts. Came in for a day, posed, left. Gave us a card.
I would like to tell the world right now how much I love this blue backlight when someone in the audience takes a picture with the flash on. It makes me feel sexy.
Some walking clichés pouting and frowning for a living. Seriously, swine flu? How demodé.
My team being serious.
This guy made the light up thing on the unfortunately blinking woman on the left. He makes lights for selfridges I think, or House of Fraser? But basically he's moving into wearable garments and does clothes, sunglasses and showpieces. Lady Gaga liked his stuff.
He told me all this outside whilst waiting to go in. He's possibly the happiest little Canadian man in the world, everything was amazing to him.
Nick said some of the models just looked "contourted" and "shapey".
"in a good way". but not hot. But I mean, you can pay to be hot, it takes more to be wierd.
This girl is the sexiest person ever.
Naw but this outfit is amazing.
Doc Martin bootie wellies are cool. I like this whole feather thing.
Now I REALLY like this body cut-out thing. It's like Victoria Beckham's cut out leggings where she had some black panels sewn in inside the knee - giving the illusion of thinner legs. I think it's hot.
Saw lots of takes on this crop top/underwear as overwear thing, really like this one. There's a see through one coming up.
Lots of cookie monster blue going around babes.
And this whole like..bits of stuff hanging off. Started with tassles, then pompoms, now it's a bloody free-for-all.
This look has been around all week. Reminds me of the recent Chanel campaign which looks like it's set in spain. I found one of those hats on the floor and nearly nicked it but someone else did instead. Damn.
Charlie Le Mindu
Human churches.
This reminds me of an old Bailey. As in David, I think. Or Mert and Marcus's picture of Drew Barrymoore in the style of...something. Shut up I'm watching Ab Fab my mind is all over the place.
Looks a bit like pubes. Sexy pubes, but pubes. I remember some guy one like...one of those designer programmes where they get voted out...there was a big fat guy who made clothes out of human hair and everyone thought it was disgusting, but I loved it! I mean, people wear wigs what's so disgusting about wearing hair on, say, a collar or a skirt?
The matching bag is saweeeeet!
The tribute wall for Alexander McQueen
My tribute (this took me 3 goes to get the shoe right)
An exhibition (i.e. lots of models standing still for a few minutes while people drink champagne and takes photos of them.)
DAY TWO
Just so you kinda understand how this works...I don't really know the smaller designers, only the big ones. I enjoy the clothes, the social interaction and the general beauty on show, I'm not really a diehard name-rememberer.
But here we go
Kind of modern geisha, yeah? Sommat like that. Someone run out and get me a yellow lipstick tho, yeah?
I don't know, maybe they ran out of white? Eurg. Either way I didn't like this colour on a face, anyone's face. But the drop waist and the waistycoat thing is nice.
HAHA! Patsy just went "is it a bee?" youtube this shit NOW.
Is it a bee?
Yeah babes I'd have stuff with the white. It's not that bloody racist, it's art! Maybbeee...blue? With white lips? Bah.
This show i liked. Spacey.
The girls weren't actually this tall, it's called Photoshop
Basically there was a strobe light and they played the main music from Resident Evil which made me feel sexy.
I am an IDIOT and forgot this one's name, it's on her bag. Something beginning with P? Anyway she was here boiling away, must be great for losing a bit of weight, eh?
She looks like the child of Chucky, that doll what comes alive and kills people. Yeh?
But the DRESS. ..
These shoes look like the back of the girl's heads in the beginning of the September Issue. I liked that.
McQueenage coming in here? Or is it just my imagination?
A reporter wearing some Marc by Marc Jacobs wedges, which I would prefer if the silver bit was a mirror or see through plastic, not silver foil stuff.
A sexy photographer man
Some more gorgeous shoes which someone nearly fell over in t-loll.
Aimee Nazaroo - a friend of a friend Hanna Hillier - modelling VERY well ^^
These tit things I liked, because lately it's been all about accentuating them wheras here it looks like they've been flattened out like an old smartie tube.
I love the prints, but this shoulder thing is a bit too Cyberdog.
Aimee has the face of a beautiful pingu.
This woman in the background on the left is beautiful. Also what a sexual crotch.
JURASSIC PARK CHIC
Next
Some purple stuff.
It's not camo, thank fuck.
The boots are like..calf length and it looked like they blend into the leggings which is cool, just having these little doll feet with techno print.
Wrapping paper.
These trousers are a bit last year's Balmainy, yeh? MMmmm.
I'm gonna leave it there for now and post the new blog after I've finished the last two days off.
