silencing arenas.

On Monday I saw Radiohead for the third time. 20 000 people fell silent.

NYFW SS13.

Acronyms aside, style.com is currently a haven of NYFW joy. I'm feeling a significant amount of love for Tommy Ton's street style snaps; a selection of which resides below.

Opening Ceremony comes to King Street.






The almighty Carol Lim and Humberto Leon have finally brought Opening Ceremony in the form of a pop-up shop to London's King Street. I have been literally itching to go since it opened last week, but in an ironic twist the Olympic Opening Ceremony foiled my plan of dashing to the store after work on Friday, through fear of not actually being able to get home on the tube. Massive sporting events aside, I cannot wait to bury my face in Chloë Sevigny's collection, although let's be honest the only thing I can probably afford to buy there is a pencil from the stationary section. But a girl can dream.

Looking slightly deranged, but hey this is about the outfit, not the face, okay?

Estelle Dévé.


Ahhh the glorious Estelle Dévé. We already all love her because she was born in France. And everyone knows that it's not just rumour and hearsay that French women are cool. Because Charlotte Gainsbourg told me it was true. 


Dévé's jewellery is inspired by the earth, literally. Geology, palaeontology and the ocean all appear to be influences on the texture and aesthetic of her work. It reminds you that gold and silver are natural elements. Which sounds pretty stupid, but THINK ABOUT IT.

ULTIMATE.



YES. Oh yes. Finally, after idiotically selecting USPS standard airmail on the shipping page of Nastygal, the Jeffrey Campbell Coltrane boots of my dreams finally arrived. I wore them all day running around the office on Friday, and they served me well. Although they make my feet feel so gigantic I kept tripping over rails of bags.

RCA Fashion Show 2012

On Wednesday I had the honour of supporting my fellow students by attending the Royal College of Art MA Womenswear, Womenswear Millinery, Fashion Knitwear and Menswear postgraduate shows. Some particularly brilliant collections came from Trine Hav Christensen, Hannah Morgan, Rebecca Thomson and Rachel Chan. I am graduating amongst some absolutely brilliant talents, many of whom have already been snatched up by internationally renowned design houses and ateliers. A huge congratulations to you guys.

Rei Kawakubo | Dover Street Market | Comme des Garçons







"I want to create a kind of market where various creators from various fields gather together and encounter each other in an ongoing atmosphere of beautiful chaos: the mixing up and coming together of different kindred souls who all share a strong personal vision."Rei Kawakubo on DSM

Rei, I bow down to you. You have brought us the inimitable Comme des Garçons and created the universe's greatest retail experience in the form of Dover Street Market. Your influence has spawned likes of  LN-CC and Maison Martin Margiela. What can I say? You are my god.
