London Fashion Week

Last night i was lucky enough to get the opportunity to go and see 2 shows at London Fashion Week.The online Fashion and Trend website The Look Hit which i write for, gave me 2 shows to attend, and subsequently write about. I saw MATH and Raffaele Ascoine.

I had actually never heard of either of these designers before I was asked to go, but what I saw, I loved!

Math was my favourite out of the two, with clean cut geometric shapes, and bright neon stripes of material to break up the colour blocks. It was an exciting collection and the atmosphere was electric. A neutral tone was used as a base for the majority of the garments, which was a bold choice because that colour could be considered quite bland, but the way in which the neon stripes were incorporated made the collection mcuh more fun and exciting. The hair and makeup was very clean cut and precise which I really liked because it complimented the simple and elegant nature of the whole collection. The makeup was minimal with defined eyebrows and an orange lip, which was a detail complimenting the orange stripe featured in most of the collection. Hair was kept swept off the face and straight.

The other show i saw was Raffaele Ascoine. This collection was very different to Math, with the clothes having a far more feminine and elegant feel to them. The main colour scheme which was used were pastel pinks, blues and corals, and then to make an interesting contrast, a few black outfits were thrown in. Oversized sequins were also a major feature. I am definately keen to see what this designer has to offer in the future!.

This was my opinion on the 2 shows i got to experience, My photos and review of the day to follow.....(Big day of shopping ahead, im afraid blogging will have to wait a few hours!) x
