Backstage at Osman, London Fashion Week A/W 11

Osman is known for his architectural designs for the thinking woman, and this was certainly the case at London Fashion Week A/W 11.

The hair and beauty being created backstage were strictly architectural too, with black, shoulder-length, angled bobs being clipped.

The look that Osman wanted to resemble was: ‘I have been up all night cutting my hair with my boyfriend’s clippers, my bangs are too long but I am hiding behind my fringe.’ This hung on the wall as a mantra for the stylists. However, my personal favourite was the line, ‘Think about chopping vegetables.‘ Needless to say that a designers’ creative license is greater than yours or mine...

The result was a chic and edgy look which echoed the designs from the collection. I’m sure that we’ll see this look coming to a street near you...

London Fashion Week S/S 11, Day Two

Charles Anastase S/S 11, LFW










Day two saw me attending the Emilio de la Morena, Osman and Charles Anatase catwalk shows.

Emilio de la Morena was full of eye-catching brights, punched leather and cropped jackets. See some of the backstage photos at Emilio de la Morena in a previous post.

Osman was a mix of easy-to-wear, sporty pieces which weren’t my cup of tea – perhaps that’s because I had to make him so bloody many on an internship after graduating from university...

I loved the Charles Anatase show; it took place in an old post office sorting warehouse which was an amazing atmospheric space. The clothes included ethereal dresses and skyscraper wedges – which prompted a Naomi Campbell fall by one of the models – which were a definite crowd pleaser. Interviewing Charles after the show he said that he was inspired by long summer evenings sat in his friend’s garden in Kentish Town.

London Fashion Week, Day Two, Round-Up

So, it's day two at London Fashion Week and I've been to see the Emilio de la Morena show this morning. Backstage was calmer than I anticipated with the models being made up to the likes of The Cure. See backstage photos below, will update catwalk shots shortly.

The show featured ice queen beauty with nude make-up and combed back wet-look hair. The palette was pastels and cream, featuring lots of mint green and lemon yellow. I loved the short hemlines, cropped jackets and punched leather.

Front row saw a petite Olivia Palermo and chic-looking Julia Restoin Roitfeld enjoying the show.

Bring on Osman! Gotta dash....
