London is Calling

The London Fashion Week has been going on. In the beginning of it there were collections presenting clothes that almost all looked the same with the same short dresses with above the knee skirt lengths in different colors and fabrics. I was bored. And then the following day I perked up and saw some fun, luxe and impressive lines. Thank goodness. Louise Gray had presented color, and layers of textures that brushed a pulse of life in her designs. Jaeger London was luxe.  House of Holland was whimsical. Jonathan Saunders did a great job in a play of color blocking and mixing prints. I enjoyed Daniella Helayel's Issa collection. I am certain that somewhere in her mind that Kate Middleton was one of her inspirations.
There is more to come.

It really looks like London is calling this season.
