LFW SS13

So I covered a few shows at London Fashion Week SS13 for F.Tape which you can find here including PPQ – who hosted a very fabulous afterparty at Kensington Roof Gardens, an 80’s ghetto fabulous Mark Fast (my favourite), a Barbie themed Louise Gray and a Tennis playing David Koma among others.

Here’s a few pictures we took..

I also went to a few Vauxhall Fashion Scout shows which are always packed out! I was gutted to have missed Pam Hogg, Spijkers en Spijkers and Bernard Chandran this season, but I took a new liking to Manuela Dack who graduated in 2010 from Middlesex University (Holla!) who featured glittery Juju jelly sandals paired with white garments of multiple fabrics and textures for Spring/Summer ’13.
