London Fashion Week Fall ’10: The Tangent Wrap-Up
London fashion expresses the duality of British culture, where tradition coincides with the avant-garde. London has always been a launch pad for emerging designers and known for fusing creative ideas with Saville Row tailoring. This season, London Fashion Week Fall 2010 expressed a fairly tame but well rounded season of beautiful designs. There were two dominant trends from the previous Spring/Summer season that permeated the designs shown on the London catwalks. These trends were digitised prints, inspired by Alexander McQueen Plato’s Atlantis SS10 show, and, the return to chic elegance which was driven home by Phoebe Philo at Celine in the same season. Other trends explored were block colour, sci-fi futurism, 1940′s glamour, and lingerie inspired outerwear. In true London style there was still a splash of fashion that was absurd and obscure which forces us to challenge the way we view the function of cloth, and thank goodness for that!
