Here we are… back where we started. London Fashion Week in all it’s post-covid glory! AW23 FELT LIKE THE FIRST SEASON THAT LFW REGAINED IT’S FORMER STATURE, SHOWCASING NEW AND EXCITING DESIGN TALENT. We witnessed a great showcase by @thecreatives & here are our favourite looks!

ALL VISUALS BY @CAPRI_MCPHERSON

APPAREL BY MO

@APPARELBYMO

MODEL // @MONIQUE9190

ELEGANCE THROUGHOUT! THE NIGERIAN DESIGNER IS SEEMINGLY INSPIRED BY VERA WANG THROUGH DESIGN WORK THAT NOT ONLY HIGHLIGHTS THE PIECE BUT ALSO THE WEARER. A GRACEFUL PROPOSITION FOR AW23.

ARCHIVE WORLDWIDE

@ARCHIVEWORLDWIDE

@ARCHIVE.ONLINE

MODEL // @BRADLEY.AYISI

We’re SEEING A SELECTION OF READY TO WEAR PIECES BROUGHT FORWARD BY ARCHIVE. BASED IN THE IDEA OF TIMELESS PIECES DESIGNED IN THE PAST & CREATED IN THE FUTURE. THE COLLECTION DID WELL TO SHOWCASE MINIMAL STREETWEAR PIECES THAT ARE FOCUSED IN ATTENTION TO SLIGHT DETAIL.

BERNADETTE JANI

@BERNADETTEJANI

MODEL // @LOREEE_011

WE LOVED THE BOLD COLOURS AND DESIGNS BOASTED BY THIS PIECE. HAND-PAINTED ARTWORK TRANSFERRED ONTO FABRIC VIA SUBLIMATION WITH A STRONG SENSE OF IDEAOLOGY. COINED “THE CHILD INSIDE”, THIS COLLECTION CARRIES A STRONG THEME AS WELL AS BEING MADE FROM ORGANICALLY RECYCLED POLYESTER.

FINESSE

@FNSSUNVRSE

MODEL // @MAENADESQUE

2050 NOT 2023. THE USE OF DENSE LEATHERS AND MATERIALS THAT RESEMBLE A LIQUID METAL FEEL TAKE THIS COLLECTION FAR INTO THE FUTURE. WE LOVED THIS ENSEMBLE, EXHIBITING A LIQUID SHINE FINISH. A REAL STATEMENT PIECE.

KAYA KNITWEAR

@KAYAKNITWEAR

MODEL // @SIANCOADY

SLOW FASHION 2023. A COLLECTION THAT DISPLAYS BOLD & BRIGHT COLOURS, SEEMINGLY CREATING HIGH QUALITY KNITWEAR. WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHERE THIS DESIGNER TAKES THIS KNITWEAR CONCEPT!

TRIMINGHAM

@TRIMINGHAM_

MODEL // @TIJAN_SS

BOASTING SERIOUS CRAFTSMANSHIP, TRIMINGHAM BRINGS FORTH AN OFFERING OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY. “THE LOST FILES” BRINGS FORTH A REDEVELOPMENT OF PREVIOUS SAMPLES, FAVOURITES OR UNFINISHED PIECES, WITH A VARIETY OF CONCEPTS THAT USE REMNANT FABRICS IN A VERY SPECIAL WAY. WE LOVED THIS PIECE AND WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE IT IN ACTION THIS AUTUMN/WINTER.

AUTUMN WINTER 23 NEVER LOOKED SO EXCITING. SEE YOU NEXT SEASON!
