Alexander McQueen Autumn/Winter '13: Shakespearean Fencer

So, Starting it off, a cheeky ruff and a (sparkly) fencing mask, with puffy sleeves. Fence in style I say.
Looks similar? I guess we know Sarah Burton's inspiration
I just don't know what to say, kudos for effort I guess.
Elizabeth would be sooo on trend right now.
I actually like this, it's like boudoir wear, but can also be used in self defense, have you seen the spikes.  It's a Chastity suit. Well Queen Elizabeth was the 'Virgin Queen'.
This is like a cross between 'Big Fat Gypsy Wedding/Elizabethan England'
I never knew ruffs would be back
Very ostrich like, but I enjoy it, imagine walking down the street in this. 
Hungry for more? go here for the video of the show.

Topshop Unique AW 2013, Is Embracing the Nineties.



So opening the show on the track list was Blur with 'Girls and Boys' you know that tune 'girls are boys who like boys to be girls' ect. So I thought you could play the tune while reading my views on the collections highlights/lowlights.

There's a lot of PVC, but it's a lot better than their SS 2013,- where They Went For 'Doctor Chic' But Just Hit 'Care Home Confusion'

What I love about this is not that difficult for you to create yourself, no offense, but you could easily find similar items on ebay, which is great
I would love a red plasticy skirt, I also really like the red snake print cowboy boots too.
I pretty much own those boots. You know my cowboy boots! We can make this.
Bit Paddinton Bear esque
I think this is a onesie....... I'm a fan of an all in one. Why are you so against them?
Again, you could source this get up from ebay. Like the cut of the pants. 
I enjoy the combination of those boots with this dress, really nice.  Very you!
 
Midi Length Skirts seem to be a thing Topshop is pushing at the moment. They don't flatter everyone, but Ido like the volume here as opposed to those 'you aren't allowed to walk midis'. 
This jacket started out promising, but those sleeves have completely sabotaged  any  public wearablity. I would I think it is cool.
THIS IS MY 2ND FAVE. Part grunge, part fairy (it's kind of what I go for day to day). You are such a grunge fairy! Love that
OK, this is defiantly a onesie. Personally, I've never succumbed to the onesie ,  Yes I understand tat some people are fans but can be please keep them of the runways, and also can people stop  going out in public, you just look like giant babies. I LIKE AN ALL IN ONE. THEY ARE FUN. 
Pastel Russian. The thigh high split, daring.
Quite Great Gatsby. Again with the split skirt. Quite sexy and sophisticated.
THIS WAS MY  FAVORITE. It's just perfect. Soooo you! Its just you, you would look better in it than the model! I just see it. 

I'm in love with this jumpsuit. Unfortunately I'm not lean or leggy enough to carry it off.  NOW YOU ARE TALKING. I want this! I can see myself in this!

Central Saint Martins, Is,well, it's Different

Elish Macintosh, the Textile for Fashion student and overall L'Oreal Professionel Creative Award winner of the night. She now has quite the kick-start to her fashion career - for the Central Saint Martins MA show is the one that everyone clambers into, on the look out for fashion's new stars and names.


This is a little too 'arty farty' for me to be honest, but I appreciate the effort
Assaf Reeb
Looks like sports gear for mega hipsters.
I like the towel nonchalantly thrown over  his shoulder  it's like all  'yeah, I've been to the gym, and what'
Elish Macintosh, they bloody love ropes. I bet that outfit chafes.
This is actually pretty cool, but I bet you sweat a lot.
Marie Rydland, I imagine Jesus wore something like this.
Nice to meet you, I'm Noah.
Heyyy, Noah, I'm Jonah, just got out of a whale, hows that ark coming along?
 Jaimee McKenna, I enjoy this, bet it's really warm.
This is quite 'pride and prejudice meets pleated blue wool'
I bet this swished. I love this one. It is the only one so far where I've actually gone 'ooooh'. 
Hwan Park, you couldn't wear this to a barbecue.
Halloween ghost costume
Jessica Fawcett, I think this collection was one of my faves.

Nayoung Moon, looks a bit like holey cheese does it not?
I still can't work out what this is 'saying'. Don't you think it looks super comfy though?
Elena Crehan, men in fishnets, how very 'rocky horror'
So Fluffy
This model looks pissed off, maybe because he looks like an over grown bird.
Rachel Hewitt


Made for people with an 'extreme pear shape' I suppose
Hampus Berggren, what a 'stapping lad' hahha.
Hehehe ... nipple...
Hi. I'm Zorro.
Sadie Williams, going to invade a planet? This is the dress for you.
Hello Earthlings, I am the new ruler of your people.
I'm about to invade your death star, whatchagonna do? Is the model behind her scratching her bum?
Toma Stenko, so we've had shapes over clothes now, time for  shapes under
I'm not 'deep' enough to under stand this. Pretty colour though
