Emerging Fervour

The moment the London Fashion Week closes its doors, another one opens and it does so for all of us! London Fashion Weekend is taking place from 25th – 28th February, letting you shop from over 100 designers selling a range of samples, one-off designs, current and past seasons collections at up to 70% off RRP.

There were some amazing bargains to be had last year and the list of designers looks as good this year, if not better. The catwalk rounds up the key looks for Spring/Summer 2010 with help of a selection of British and International fashion forward designers including Betty Jackson, Herve Leger, Jasper Conran, Alice by Temperley, Ashley Isham, Twenty8Twelve and Jaeger London.

See the full designers list on their site www.londonfashionweekend.co.uk/designers and a sneak preview of the discounts at  www.londonfashionweekend.co.uk/designer-discounts-preview

Oooh a bit too late in the day but you better start saving so you can splash out!

I’ve just come back from Somerset House and 180 The Strand, which after a week of the London Fashion Week is now kicking off the London Fashion Weekend in association with Elle where over 120 designers are offering fabulous discounts for their autumn/winter 09 collection. The event started yesterday and will be going on until the 27th September.

For me the highlight was certainly the catwalk which was hosted by Louise Row, who not only looked beautiful but was brilliant.

And check out the shoes!!

Sadly my camera by then was dying and I only managed to grab a few shots.

Manish Arora, I loved his animal inspired collection, nicely quirky

Jaeger London

After the catwalk, with the goodie bag over my shoulder and a glass of champagne consumed, the shopping continued. Did I find anything? I did, but not for myself, a wicked leather jacket for my friend for £49!!
