34 CTFO @ LONDON FASHION WEEK

London Fashion Week kicked off yesterday opening with shows from Australian labels Sass & Bide, Felder Felder and Hannah Marshall.

I am especially excited for the House of Holland ready to wear collection, CTFO (chill the f*ck out) It's Only A Show; where as usual Henry Holland gets his message across straight and simple. The new collection centred on the theme of the House of Holland girl going downtown. Trademark cheeky and quirky, there was a more upmarket feel to this collection, with suede shearling used on jackets and striped denim and crepe for an oversized boiler suit. Plus look at those AMAZING wedges - wowie! They are Charlotte Olympia suede ankle boots, and you can get them here. For the more realistic wallet, get the look at Mi Piaci with their fabulous Horton wedges.

The British Fashion Council also announced a slot on its official schedule to host its first ever sustainable catwalk show.The open air event was held in the grounds of Clarence House and featured some big names such as Stella McCartney and Vivienne Westwood, as well as smaller labels such as People Tree. The show reflects a change in thought and attitude the industry, it is a first but significant step in raising the global standard of sustainable fashion.
