I recently read the current issue of Elle magazine UK and there was an article about how today's catwalks have become too much about good taste and not enough about creativity and suspense.


"People seem to want a FASHION show to be a rail of clothes. Perhaps that's why there's all this good TASTE around. It's like a creative coma" says Erin Mullaney (Elle Magazine Uk)

"Why were there not major changes in the way we dress? Whatever happened to the catwalk show as a theatrical spectacular? And why was I never sitting - heart pumping, blood rushing to my head-on the edge of my seat?" Elle Magazine

 
I personally believe that the catwalk today is very creative and full of exciting collections. Of course every designer wants to be known for good taste but I don't think that affects their catwalk collections. How can a catwalk be boring when it's full of dalmation prints, neon colours, freaky faces and much more...

JAEGER LONDON A/W 2011










I LOVE Jaeger's statement coats in their Autumn/Winter 2011 collection.

"A cool, modern and urban collection mixing historic, authentic references with thoroughly modern cut and fabrications. A bold graphic print builds on Jaeger’s longstanding love for graphic pattern. Statement coats form the backbone of the collection in exquisite noble fibres with unique detailing." Londonfashionweek.co.uk

ADAM & EVE








LOVE



Adam & Eve is a little hidden treat in the centre of London, protected from all the chaos a few streets away! It's a very quirky pub with vibrant decor and relaxed homely atmosphere.
