As you already know London Fashion Week is starting today. It is the second fashion week covering the Fall/Winter 2012 season. London is known for giving birth to rebellion in fashion. From the late Alexander McQueen to the eternal Vivienne Westwood, designers have created provocative garbs with an unapologetic in-your-face approach. But over the years London as also brought a certain sensibility and craftsmanship to the conversation. Think about Aquascutum, Erdem, Moschino and Marios Schwab who all adorn the female form with confidence, structure and glamour.
Britain is also known for being the epicenter where street fashion started to influence high fashion in a major way. It was in London that the grunge movement made its way from the streets onto the catwalk. To this day, sartorial stars are shocking the world and we cannot wait to see what they wear where this week.
Whether you are into edgy or feminine fashion London Fashion Week is sure to please.
