Top 10 London Fashion Week Looks

Thursday, March 1, 2012

Here's the run-down of my top 10 favorite looks from the London Fashion Week fall/winter 2012 runways, in no particular order.


House of Holland



Red leather is heating up the runways right now, and Henry Holland's fire engine cocktail dress might be the sexiest version I've seen so far.


Temperley London


I loved Alice's Temperley's polished folk-themed runway show. I could imagine a stylish young czarina wearing this bright floral embroidered velvet dress with sheer long sleeves. 

Mary Katrantzou

Unique prints are a huge trend for fall, and no one does them better than hip designer Mary Katrantzou.  Mundane, every day objects like clocks, grass and typewriters decorated her moulded dresses for a not so mundane result. 

Marios Schwab

Marios Schwab drew inspiration from Hollywood grande dame Marlene Dietrich for his fall collection. My favorite looks were a series of sequined sheaths glittering under sheer chiffon, referencing Dietrich's "naked" dresses from her cabaret years. Who knew that pornographic fashion could look so chic?

Christopher Kane

 Christopher Kane also took on the sheer trend, but this time, the designer chose see-through tulle mesh, strategically covering any naughty bits with oversized black flowers.

Burberry Prorsum

Dressed up puffer jackets were a favorite on the fall runways. Christopher Bailey's cropped coats looked especially sleek paired with slim ruffled pencil skirts. Expect to see these stylish puffers sell out everywhere come fall.

Mark Fast

 Now, THAT's a sweaterdress. I've never seen comfy look so sexy!

 Matthew Williamson

 I loved the bright baroque prints that decorated Matthew Williamson's gowns. This is such a unique take on red carpet dressing.

Roksanda Ilincic

 Dressed up sweatshirts have appeared on many runways this season, but my favorite was this one, contrasting an ice blue astrakhan skirt with luxurious fox trim.

Jonathan Saunders

The futuristic equestrians at Jonathan Saunders were both charming and modern. The neon green mixed with neutral tones was a clever, but simple stroke of genius.
