Yep, this really is my third consecutive post on V&A’s India Festival. I can’t help myself!- the leading show Fabric of India is a stunner and supporting talks and events have been fab too. I attended last week’s V&A Fashion in Motion which this year shone the spotlight on Ashish Gupta. The retrospective catwalk show featured his high-octane, sequin rich, sports luxe designs from the last ten years. My faves included the camo parka, the slogan tees and dresses, his rainbow sequin separates and of course the blinged up shopping bags.

The Fashion in Motion series started back in 1999 and each year invites a leading fashion designer to showcase a retrospective of their work with live catwalk shows. Look out for the next show in 2016!

Supa Dupa Fly: Revlon for Sophia Webster LFW S/S 14

23rd Sept 2013

Revlon is one of those make up brands that has never really made much of an impression on me. I’ve always presumed it was a bit dated. I might have to take another look after stumbling across their work at the Ahh-mazing Sophia Webster’s S/s 14 London Fashion Week presentation: Supa Dupa Fly. Sophia Webster is one of London’s brightest design talents and I love that her S/s 14 presentation was a fun, colourful fantasy just like her footwear and bags! Revlon’s team matched Sophia designs with bonkers hair, fresh make up and delicious graphic nails.
