Ahhhhh is the sound of clothes, relaxing. There is no better remedy for New York Fashion Week, which is the event equivalent of a clenched butt, than London Fashion Week, which is more like a popper. It started out strong with a presentation by Shrimps, the ethical, faux-fur-focused label started by Hannah Weiland,…

Fashion shows, at their worst, are a slog, particularly if the runway is lackluster. What “they” (The Man) don’t tell you so much is that getting to and from a fashion show is often much longer and more complicated than the actual show, never mind actually getting inside and finding your seat amid a scrum of people…

Perhaps you recall last season’s London Fashion Week when Christopher Kane, the visionary designer of a million non-basic gals’ fashion dreams, introduced jewel-encrusted Crocs that not only high-low’d the reviled footwear but gave them, perhaps, a little healing crystal aura for your tootsies.

Winter in many areas of the Northeast has turned our bodies the same temperature as our hearts, even indoors where insulation in the workplace is oddly lacking. Sweaters are our only respite in these conditions, even if it includes fantasizing about the cozy, aesthetically wild looks coming out of London Men’s…

While we’re all perpetually wondering how to achieve the most perfect cat-eye, Sophia Webster posed a far more advanced question in her ‘60s girl group-inspired Spring ‘17 presentation for London Fashion Week. If the cat-eye’s just a cat’s eye, what kinda eyeliner does the cat wear?

Ashish Gupta, the Delhi-born British designer whose taste for sequins has defined both his runways and the ever-increasing sparkliness of pop stars and style mavens, is perpetually one of the most interesting runways at London Fashion Week.

London Fashion Week is well on its way, y’all, and it has been gorgeous as always. Roksanda, helmed by Serbian-born London-based designer Roksanda Ilincic (she designed Melania Trump’s white RNC dress, although Trump bought it off Net-a-Porter; Michelle Obama and Kate Middleton have also worn her designs) put out a…

The cultish London-based designers behind Marques’Almeida said they were inspired by “up-and-comers in the nascence of their careers as stylists, journalists or photographers,” according to WWD, and designed accordingly.

Christopher Kane’s Fall 2016 collection, which debuted at London Fashion Week on Monday, was kind of nuts.

Ashish Gupta, whose immersive sequin obsession consistently lands him as the favored go-to designer for party girls with a cool streak (Charli XCX sat front row), celebrated iridescence and bright nightlight hues in a surprisingly simple collection at London Fashion Week.

London Fashion Week has emerged, like a beautiful butterfly, out of the sea of (sorry!) drab bullshit that NYFW hath wrought. Two collections, by House of Holland and Mary Katrantzou, respectively, invited a sense of lighthearted theatricality that was just... god, such a relief!

Sarah Burton’s latest fantastical collection for Alexander McQueen invoked, at least in spirit, the legends in Game of Thrones, its gestures towards medieval mythologies gleaming through in silvery unicorn appliqués on delicate lace and romantic, papillon-festooned boudoir jackets. Despite the lilting nature of the…

Some fashion shows, you get the feeling that the poor models are having the worst time of their lives—and worse, that looking that way was an artistic direction from the designer. Not so at Ashish, my favorite designer ever, who today showed his signature sequin-candy creations at London Fashion Week with some…

Since we last met, London Fashion Week flossed for several more days and ended and now it’s Milan Fashion Week. But who cares about stupid Milan because y’all, there was so much great shit in London.

It was just a year ago that Karl Lagerfeld sent models down the Chanel runway in a “feminist protest,” carrying picket signs with dumb slogans like “Be Your Own Stylist” that meant virtually nada other than co-optation for a trend. And it was just Sunday that Dame Vivienne Westwood, who has spent a good amount of the…

Nooooow we’re talking. Every fashion month, London Fashion Week is like the fun prize we get for sitting through New York Fashion Week (or, alternately, like the party you’re allowed to go to after you’re finally excused from dinner with your parents). Of course there’s greatness and lovely ideas at NYFW—for Spring,…

Fashion month marches on with the infinitely more exciting London Fashion Week, and the initial dispatches are a full-blown thrill. These two looks in particular portend a far more interesting Fall 2015 than the droll one offered by many at New York Fashion week: bright, spacey, futuristic vibes that spark the…

Here's a milestone: This year's London Fashion Week included a real-deal plus-size runway show for the brand Evans. Which is even more remarkable when you consider they're the UK equivalent of Lane Bryant. Maybe the plus-size corporate motherships really are catching on!
