LCM : Burberry Prorsum AW14

 Christopher Bailey....a man of mastermind qualities. The Burberry AW14 show made me whimper, smile, obviously the show was just incredible it was more than just a show but a display of tailoring brilliance. Luxuriantly designed and baroque tainted, conjoined with some slight accents of  Russian Constructivism is what Burberry gave us....






 The accessories of bags and the silk throw-overs made all weep like new born babies, I loved the attentive intricacy paid to tapestry which was applied to each bag. I obviously want one now, they are literally lush moving carpets and certainly harks to the typical husky Autumn/Winter vibe. The model selection I must add just for visual aesthetic appeal was perfect, a personal favorite was model, Sang Woo.

LFW SS14 : Pam Hogg

So I had the pleasure of see the Pam Hogg SS14 show at Freemasons Hall, all I can say is Punk Pam did it again!! Now, this show was more than just a fashion catwalk...it was pure genius. A combination of quirky headpieces, a cracking soundtrack and a truly theatrical performance, in true Pam Hogg style. Punk Pam exhibited top-notch eccentric creations from angelic ballerinas to graveyard crutches wearing punk dolls, literally a collection with an sensual experience, the viewers went from gasping to being struck by awe.

Future past: War x Peace showcases what Pam does best with her classic signature of geometric latex body suits and dramatic veiling that is loved by all, classic Hogg trait, there was plenty of shock factor to be seen. The collection presented dirtied military jumpsuits, sparkling war heroines and (my favourite) and delicate feathered and floral headpieces, some where pigeons, grapes, flowers and massive veils. Through the colours and range of fabrics the juxtaposition of War & Peace was fully embodied at this show. A ballerina dressed in full Pam Hogg gear came fluttering down the catwalk to a controversial bride with a black veil and an uneasy crutch.

Originality. Inventive, and truly creative are just a few of the words I would use to describe Pam Hogg's SS14 show.
