The very best of day five of London Fashion Week includes the highly anticipated Peter Pilotto and Meadham Kirchoff shows, which showed back to back at the BFC tents bright and early Thursday morning. Peter Pilotto was the name on everyone’s lips throughout the week, and they didn’t disappoint. MeadhamKirchoff followed spectacularly with an intense collection featuring shredded denim and fine black lace. We interviewed both pairs of designers backstage after their collections.
Sinha-Stanic showed an attitude-laden, 90’s referencing collection at the Royal Academy. The designers explained the ‘rebellious, beligerent’ Sinha-Stanic girl to us backstage after the show.
Thursday also kicked off the Menswear quota of the week. Peter Jensen’s bright, clean collection was followed on the Friday by the MAN show in a Soho car park, crammed to the rafters with scene kids and editors alike, all keen to see the newest talent in menswear design. We spoke with Gordon Richardson about the MAN show itself, and his collection for TOPMAN.
Thursday ended in truly fabulous style with the star-studded Issa show. We interviewed the designer Daniella Helayel backstage amongst Naomi Campbell, Jourdan Dunn and Rosamund Pike. Daniella called in the big guns; styled by Edward Enninful and with Pat McGrath doing the makeup, the Issa show was a thoroughly sexy affair.
More highlights and interviews from the whirlwind that was London Fashion Week coming each day on t5m.
