THOMAS TAIT AW12

When we entered the cold warehouse in East London for Thomas Tait, we were grateful to be handed a cup of earl grey tea whilst we waited with baited breath for the show to start. Real grass coated the runway and I knew that Thomas had something special in store this season. Thick wools and leathers in olives and mustards came in the form of floor length coats and bomber jackets, tight 3/4 length trousers and flowing silk shirts; there were fine pleated leather and jersey tops that came all the way up to form a rigid polo neck; and bouncy ponytails with leather scrunchies on the beauty side. We even saw the first use of denim and velvet in luxurious varsity style jackets, and baseball cap collaboration with HUF. The show ended in glorious style with inspector gadget playing for the final walk; I know for sure this will be my favourite show of the season. Well done Thomas!

JAEGER A/W 11

Jaeger is always my favourite press day, so classic and British, I'm happy just walking around oohing and ahhing at the plush fabrics and intricate designs. This season must have been my favourite yet, with so many incredible coats in heavy wool of khaki and mustard. Jaeger is seriously well designed and always has a twist; whether its a stitched lapel or a strange eye print, there's always something that intrigues you.
