Newgen exhibition at London Fashion Week

One thing that really caught my eye at London fashion week was the Newgen area.

Newgen sponsored by Topshop, established in 1993, is one of the world's most internationally recognised talent indentification schemes.

Here are some of the collections that really stood out

Holly Fulton

Within her work, bold, hand-drawn graphic prints combine with signature embellishment in perspex, Swarovski crystal, exotic skins and metal, to create the feel of one giant collaged form of jewellery, adorned with statement necklaces and accessories to complete the look.




Fannie Schiavoni

Renowned for her original signature chain accessories, Fannie's focus is on durable, hard wearing materials and distinctive designs. She works with muted colours to keep focus on shape and design.




Peter Pilotto

Peter Pilotto's vision of womenswear embraces both new and classic perspectives on elegance. Otherworldly prints combine with soft sculptural shapes to form the handwriting of the design duo.

London Fashion Week- Day 1 19/2/2010

I was really lucky to attend London fashion week as the stylist for 3rd Floor Publication. I had a fantastic day and met so many wonderful people. I would love to thank all the members of the British Fashion Council who were so welcoming.

The tickets I received


Paul Costelloe's A/W 2010 show was the first to touch down on the London runway this morning, with a collection dominated by dark and Gothic imagery, and a touch of super-heroine chic. Costelloe has presented the opening show for the past five seasons, with collections that often set the tone for the week's events

It was beyond amazing!! The collection was infused with the 19th century period dark western overtones with a contemporary twist. The collection had elements of nostalgic futuristic fashion. The Paul Costelloe A/W 2010 collection saw Long, lean and mean cigarette trousers teamed with structure- heavy jackets are reminiscent of envisioned future fashion, typified by metallic tones with leather detailing and architectural elegance.
