MeetMyWeek

In Photographs...


Dressing at fashion shows make you realise how fast-paced the fashion industry really is…

I experiences hairy jock-straps, heavily embellished insect-inspired knitwear, wooden scaffold-structured outer-garments as well as layers & layers of garments topped off with amazing accessories like sweet little cherries on a cupcake [well maybe not so much the hairy jock-straps!]


However, this collection did remind me of a certain Martin Margiela's design...


Lady Gaga also pretentiously sported a similar style to numerous events...




But on the plus side, this dramatic look does attract a lot of press attention...


Some collections were sponsored by shoe brands, with Jeffrey Campbell [http://www.jeffreycampbellshoes.com/] providing all the shoes for the lucky ones… His cut-out heels topped off the look, complimenting the printed knitwear & pastel hues. I love the way he particularly plays around with the shoes' heels & soles, creating a totally unique heely-feeling.


My obsession with brogues would go into overload if I got my mits on a pair of these cut-out heeled versions, let alone this summer-friendly pair...


Imaginations were obviously running wild in the final year Fashion students at Manchester Metropolitan University as they were preparing their final collections for the catwalk.First in the running order was their Manchester Fashion Show, at The Museum of Science & Industry [MOSI], ironically where my group held our previous fashion show! However, it did make me realise how much work I have ahead of me in the up-and-coming two years of my life…the collections looked incredible!

This was all in preparation for the finale at London’s Annual Graduate Fashion Week, where only 14 of the collections have been chosen to walk the catwalk of opportunities.

This is where I aim to end up.
