The Final McQueen Collection

The Alexander McQueen label exhibited Lee's final designs - completed before his recent unfortunate death - in Paris today.

It was true McQueen style: very royal, detailed and perfect tailoring in experimental shapes.

Spring/Summer's Pastels

Pastels are a huge trend for Spring/Summer 2010 and were completely unavoidable in every city during fashion month. The ice-cream colour palette is so refreshing and dreamy - I'm already looking forward to wearing these floaty girly numbers again. It's nice to have toned down from all the extreme acid bright that we've seen in previous seasons too.

Yes, dark boring colours can hide a multitude of sins and are always 'fail safe', but it's so much more inspiring when people play with colour and pull it off, it shows a lot more creative flair. And who really wants to look dull, in the fashion world especially?

I'm done with winter already and it's only just really hitting... Always have been and always will be a sunflower.

There are no words

McQueen vs. Chanel

Guess who wins.

Thank god for Mcqueen.

I'm not a fan of slating every show and every outfit I come across, but Paris Fashion Week has been such a let down so far. I looked at the Chanel images on Style.com and, yeah. Not promising.

I won't go into detail.

Then Chloe? What happened to the beautiful shoes/beautfiul blouses/beautiful shorts??

THEN, McQueen happened...

Also Valentino - lovely as ever.

Short & Sweet reviews are much less painful.

Also just checked the LFW site and February's schedule is finally up! Eee excitement! Sucks that the schedules taken a shrinking though.

Also, if anyone fancies taking me to Paris Fashion Week then that's FINE by me...
