Jonathan Saunders Spring 2013

And finally to end of LFW's Spring 2013... Jonathan Saunders. Taking on the It Trend of this season - stripes. Jonathan Saunders turns it up in a little more different, a little more youthful, a little more rock and roll with the use of metallic fabric incorporated with the stripes.  For doing so, I'm a little thankful because stripes has been seen a lot of the runway and Saunders made it a little fresher, into something I would smile at for the quirkiness. 

Another element used this the fish scale pattern, Saunder's collection made me realised this print looks better printed in 2D on fabric. It gives a little younger appeal (compare pic 1 and 2).

Erdem Spring 2013

Erdem, of course, without fail makes it into my favourites.. For its soft feminine look.. For its gorgeous gentle prints... And this season it never fails to amaze the inner desire of all girls to that gorgeous demure classic beauty.

Michael van der Ham Spring 2013

One of my fav for LFW Spring 2013, Michael van der Ham!

 I absolutely love the mix of different fabrics and prints and yet still sticking to a consistent look. If you've have noticed, Spring 2013's runway is also subtly occupied by these wrap-around skirts (skirts with extra flaps) that reminds me of a Japanese kimono. My favourite look of all are the ones (second last) that juxtapose with chiffon (?).

Best of LFW Spring 2013

Okay for my picks on the Best of London Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2013, I didn't manage to choose much because not many caught my eye. And all these I've mentioned are my favs already but sadly I've limit myself to choose only three so the rest, I have to put it in here. 

Burberry

Burberry continues to wow us this season with metallics! Oops colourful eye-popping metallics... Trenchcoat! Yes you hear me right! I didn't post any photos of the metallic trenchcoats but I'm sure you see it around town at all Burbery shop (with Romeo Beckham playfully teasing around in their campaign billboard) so need not to repeat things you might have already seen. 

I personally love the metallics + bright colours + prints combination as you can see below. I mean.. Who knew?! Definitely suitable to usher in Spring/summer as you reflect the brightly lit sun and be the star on the street. (hmmm.. now I'm gonna go around looking for an inspired piece of Burberry).

P.S. Also, check out the bags! You'll be seeing a lot of variations of the see-through bags very soon.

Richard Nicoll

Signature sportswear look of Nicoll that I adore! I should say like most Spring/summer sporty silhoutte almost never goes out of trend. The reason for adoring this trend is because its the most comfortable and lightweight outfits of all (besides sheer) for the hot and humid Summer. I guess its time for all of us to start investing in this look!

Preen by Thornton Bregazzi

This season, Preen started something new. Layering reptile prints, mixing them up with soft fabrics (like chiffon) and creating that almost graphic look. 

Topshop Unique

Topshop steps into and a little out of the main trend this season. I do believe I've mentioned in earlier. The main trend of the season is stripes. This season Topshop has made it a little easier for us to wear while giving their two sense on the Spring's trend. They have subtly includes stripes into their main pattern for this season. Not overly done and shouting in your face, THIS SEASON IS ALL ABOUT STRIPES. I guess this is what I like about this season/s Topshop Unique.
