London Fashion Week A/W 2011

So this is an incredibly late post in terms of London Fashion Week news, but I have not had a spare second up until now! I loved every minute of the exhibition, I found so much inspiration and soaked up the overwhelming atmosphere filled with creativity and innovation!! The main focus of attending was to of course source some beautiful garments from up and coming designers for the fast approaching editorials for 3rd Floor publication; which we definitely succeeded in doing! Our 6 editorial themes consist of: Structure, Colour, Metamorphosis, Alter Egos, Reverse Psychology and the Essence of Time which we found amazing creations for each one. We are currently in the midst of contacting designers and arranging for samples to be sent over- very exciting!

Favourite designers seen at the exhibition and who we would love to feature in the publication:

Mary Katrantzou
Meadham Kirchoff
Holly Fulton
Clemency
David Koma
Les Chiffioniers

Here are a few photos from the day...

Beautifully hand-crafted headbands by Joanna Cave



Stunning metal pin jacket and gloves by Clemency

Adoreable!




Can't wait for next season...!

PURE 2011

 On Tuesday, myself and the 3rd Floor team attended Pure & Pure Spirit at Earls Court for a great networking opportunity to spread the word about the publication and to source some interesting designs for our up and coming editorials! There were some really amazing pieces that we would love to feature in the publication, so will be onto contacting PR companies very soon! There were existing brands as well as new up and coming designers which caught our eye with their innovative and fresh creations. It was an extremely positive and inspiring day; now very much looking forward to Moda in Birmingham and of course LFW! Here are a few snaps from the day...
