With a hit of mustard to make the sandwich between relaxed pea-coats and draped kilt inspired skirts all that more successful, Pringle of Scotland is onto a winner. Gray and black dominated until a burst of that very same fabric making a comeback in a big way brought mustard velvet to the party again.
I've made no secret of my adoration for Paul Smith, particularly his menswear. But now for Paul Smith Women, he's raided little granny's wardrobes the world over with those old crochet licorice all sorts blankets and twee suits all fit for a queen in Balmoral. Of course he gives the allowance for it to appear utterly modern, blazers closing like a coil on a leather bound book and skirts full enough to make Mad Men go crazy.
Nicole Fahri brings that certain French elegance from her heritage to a very street ready collection. Sorbet's and caramel fall into easy step with bright red and black for a hit Autumn Winter offering.
The coats and skirts are fabulous at Jaeger London, but it's the slacks that really take the cake. There are lengths of every kind to flatter every shape, and there's that old tartan that's been current throughout the collections in London so far as well.
Christopher Kane, however, has picked up on the fact that leather jackets and floaty florals are a good recipe for success this season, and trust this very talented young man to take it one step further. He's embroidered pretty little florals into pretty little leather dresses, clever non?
Day three was like a well iced cake, something for everyone was covered.
