Touch down in London town

Yes, the Autumn 2012 edition of London Fashion Week is currently taking place in London and already I've seen some amazing collections from some of my favourite designers.

Christopher Bailey, Burberry's Chief Creative Officer, continues his incredible work at the historic company with an elegant collection filled with voluminous silhouettes and his usual creative twist on outerwear - in particular, the classic Burberry trench. Using a familiar neutral colour palette that echoes the Spring 2012 collection, slim shoulders and tailored jackets are juxtaposed with flared skirts in rich fabrics, like velvet and silk. The ornamental animal-detail clutches are cool addition to a collection that is sure to be a favourite.

If there's a beat of a drum that Mary Katranzou marches to, it is one that is all her own. Architecture-inspired shapes and bold, colourful prints abound in her Autumn 2012 collection that is unique, striking and extremely fluid, all at the same time. Compared to some of her previous collections, this one is more wearable, especially because her particular use of the structural silhouette in this collection is flattering. She does however continue to play with colours, exhibiting her famed prints (somewhat tribal this time) in sapphire, emerald and ruby.

I know of one Anna dello Russo who will love this collection. The last black dress here would look amazing on the red carpet. Also, how beautiful are the shoes? I love them.
