LFW Day 3: Harriet’s Muse presentation

February 22nd, 2010 · No Comments · Designers, Fashion, London

LFW Day One: Bora Aksu A/W 10-11

February 20th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Designers, Fashion, London

First of all, Bora Aksu’s on-schedule show was in the BFC and it was a major crush, which caused heels flying and much tutting.  The show started to an atmospheric soundtrack of Fever Ray and the models also seemed to be channelling that Scandinavian ethereal style.
