LONDON LOOKS FOR SS15

With London Fashion Week over until next year and the fashionable elite having directed their attention to Milan, we're looking back over our favourite looks of the SS15 premiered around our favourite city.

Monochrome was once more popular for many designers for SS15. And for Spring there was a surprising amount of black and grey tones on the catwalk. The prominence of sheer materials helped to introduce the rampant use of these dark colours for Spring Summer. We've been witnessing the rise of delicate and sheer materials over the last few seasons so keep hold of those sheer blouses when it comes around to sorting out your spring wardrobe.

With sheer, we also saw a lot of summer layering, lending itself well to the 90s grunge trends which are still lingering on the catwalks. Layer up sheer shirt dresses over metallic slips or throw on an textured jumper over a contrast collar blouse and a sheer midi skirt. See Marques Almeida's SS15 show for a masterclass in summer layering.

Sporty influences were rife especially at Topshop Unique but often contrasted with floaty and textured dresses. Ashish showed us once more to not be afraid of sequins with a collection rooted in slinky slip dresses, distressed denim and sweaters - obligatory mention for the Kanye/KimK sequin masterpieces.
But our stand out SS15 collections came from Simone Rocha, Erdem, and Bora Aksu who presented fresh takes on floaty lace and lazer cut garments that will be perfect for Summer 2015. Here we saw the cream, white and neutral colour tones that we have come to expect for this season. Erdem however, went for a darker and more structured look than we have seen in the past but with exquisite detail as ever and was a highlight of LFW for many.
Now onto the most illustrious of all the fashion weeks, Milan.
