It seems as if London Mens Collection just gets better and better every single season. The opening party was held at the prestigious Spencer house and hosted by the Editor in chief of GQ Magazine Dylan Jones.
It was a star studded affair where I got to catch up with fellow Supermodel David Gandy, as well as stars from across the world including hit TV shows 'The Voice', musician and judge will.i.am.
The gala was attended by the hottest names in Menswear fashion including one of my all time favourites Oliver Spencer. His show was held at official LCM BFC show space and he delivered an original and engaging collection featuring stripes in burgundy and earth tones, mixed with tartan, chunky knitwear, silk's and sued.
The show presented an utterly compelling and beautifully wearable contemporary wardrobe for the modern, fashion-conscious man. Oliver gets his main inspiration from the arts, architecture and London’s subculture scene. Yet again the Maharishi show was simply incredible. I found myself effortlessly engrossed in a blissful dream from start to finish; captivated by the magical feel of the entire collection, featuring models such as musician and peace activist legend Don Letts.
The ethos of Maharishi is centred around creating an environmentally sound, fair-trade clothing range that is long-lasting, high-quality, utilitarian clothing. His work always includes natural fibers and products including hemp, organic cottons and recycled military clothing.
It was a truly inimitable affair, with a powerful presence and powerful message. The models grooming and hair was left in the phenomenal hands of the acclaimed Johnnie Sapong. I was caught completely off guard by the breathtaking attention to detail and impeccable tailoring at the Joshua Kane show. This season the illusionist provided more of his trademark sophistication, mixed with faux fur and gold that enveloped both hearts and minds.
It was also great to catch up with fellow presenter Alex Zane and bump into sweetheart USA hit rap star Eve on the front row. I closed this season by attending Bobby Abley's show at Victoria House which for me delivered a positively effervescent collection that quite frankly made me smile from ear to ear. Bobby used bright and bold cartoon character piece's and a whole lot of awesome feathers that just made you want to let loose and live.
Check out some of his work if your looking for some fun, fresh garments for 2016. Other shows not to miss were; Burberry, KTZ, Alexander McQueen, Christopher Kane, Barbour, Christopher Raeburn, Coach and of course Pringle of Scotland.
