London Fashion Week: The Excitement Begins

While the rest of the world has been afflicted with summer fever, the fashion elite are planning our winter wardrobes.

Come September, just as we start breaking out our fall knits, we’ll be getting clued in on Spring/Summer 2011 trends.

London Fashion Week might just be the hottest ticket these days – recent seasons saw the return of Pringle of Scotland, Matthew Williamson, and Burberry Prorsum.

While we love these designers, it’s Giles Deacon’s return  we’ve been waiting for; we are itching to see his jaw-dropping creations grace the runway at Somerset House.  

Last season, Londoners were given a taste of Deacon frenzy with an accessories presentation, and come September, the London fashion pack will be reeling with excitement as Giles returns from Paris. 

“Giles is a quintessential London label,” Deacon has said about his return to the UK, “and I am extremely happy to be showing in London after two successful seasons in Paris”.

Alexander McQueen’s heartbreaking suicide all but ruined last fashion week, with a 1-minute silence, and dedication wall centered in the main presentation room. This season, the British fashion crowd can pay their respects to the creative genius at the Alexander McQueen memorial.
