Very rich in detail. So many of these garments would be sensational for editorials! Some pieces do look a bit pondered, however.

Save the darker pr. of sneakers, the other prs. throw me off a bit - I'm failing to see what they're adding to the collection, rly.

I love the spirit behind it at any rate, esp. after the barren state that was NY fw.

Thanks, Scott!

Scott!

The red dress might be my favorite look from the whole collection, I like how it's constructed and the type of fabrics he used in it. Digging all the mustard as well, in particular this delicious (chiffon?) jacket. Always such rich earthy tones in his collections. I think, however, some pieces could do with some lighter footwear...

That's beautiful. Thanks for adding it!

 

[adorefaith]

there's too much going on imo...it's so fussy...
there are 2 looks i love though...
and the colours are beautiful..

i agree with wiw that it would probably look great in editorials...
dont know about 'real life' though...

 

[kissmesweet]

I love all that's going on. The architecture of the designs is fantastic.

The colours and styling of this show is wonderful.

 

[Scott]

in my life such things would fit perfectly

you're welcome everybody and thanks for adding those perle....i wasn't too sure when i first had a gander but second time round they're really lovely indeed...

seriously,why isn't this the guy being the one that's being talked about in such high regard? i really think he's the most talented compared with all of those 'it' designers in london.

Nice, but deja-vu....been seeing this for the past 2 seasons now.

Scott, one must be an unapologetic plagiarist to get anywhere these days...



24+ pgs. cements this theory...

This is SO London! I really like it

 

[rouge_red]

Some of this is really strong!

 

[Nelly Cat]

I love the rich colors, though, had I not known, I probably would've pegged this as a Fall collection...

Once again, great mix of fabrics, but I don't find the detailing as strong as usual. Some great stuff, though, and I think most of it is quite wearable? I'd love to get my hands on that red dress, and the first mustard colored one...

 

[happyguy]

love the first dress...the mustard-y one...and the black see throught cover up.

it's true yes....but one would have thought that london would have more respect than say ny who always hypes up talentless designers.....london at least has always got it right to me. but i suppose in any case it is the state of the fashion world at the moment. i wish zowie and brian would show again in london and give it a swift wake-up kick in the bum....

 

[wheneveriwakeup]

Oh yes! I miss Zowie and Brian terribly. Boudicca was such a highlight to London Fashion Week. They're showing in Paris this season, no?

 

[jhaime]

Nice, but deja-vu....been seeing this for the past 2 seasons now.

why change what works so well for them, in a rather original format within the London & even International climate?

I love the colours and the layering.Very beautiful collection
