And just like that, we’re already halfway through fashion month, and after enjoying the stylish offerings from our friends across the pond, it’s time to bring it back to Britain. While team Who What Wear were busy dashing from show to show, we had plenty of time to discuss our favourite fashion moments of the week, and while we wait to see what Paris brings to the runway, the best dressed in our own capital have given us plenty of inspiration.
On the runways Richard Quinn, Dilara Fındıkoğlu, and Di Petsa explored dark gothica with plenty of leather and lace, Paul & Joe, Ahluwalia, and David Koma made bright red the shade of the season, and Burberry’s hotly anticipated re-invention under Daniel Lee brought the heritage check back to the forefront. And, outside the shows looked just as exciting as on the runways. London has always been celebration of diversity, mixing cultural references with plenty of colour, texture and standout silhouettes, and this season the street style did not disappoint.
From statement eveningwear to chic separates, we learned a lot from the streets of London, and it’s the perfect place to start when looking for new outfit inspo. Scrolling through pictures of the best street style looks we noticed the same hero pieces re-appearing time and again, and immediately took note on these very key buys. Thankfully enough, it isn’t all eye-wateringly priced designer clothing, and in fact, you may well already have a few of them in your closet.
