New York Fashion Week was amazing! The lines, the styles, the colors, the patterns, the INSPIRATIONS- it all made for a great experience to watch and if you missed it, do not fret my pet, you can take a look at all the lines and shows here! Go ahead and catch up, then get ready for LONDON! London Fashion Week was from February 14- 18 this year, not long at all! I feel like I almost missed it. There are over 100 shows showcasing the latest and greatest in Autumn/Winter (sometimes known as Fall/Winter) fashion.
London is known for their amazing street style; I feel like the people there were born runway ready- they just ooze style, so I could only imagine that their fashion week was going to be even better. All my imaginations were true! Here is a rundown of my favorite shows from the entire Fashion Week.
Fyodor Golan
This line is daring, different, and daunting. This designer played NO GAMES! Although the pieces themselves were extremely hard to miss, it is the cornrows that I love. I love the "3D texture" and shiny material. The style is geometric, the patterns are beautiful, and that hot pink is calling my name!
Mark Fast
Talk about rich, vibrant colors! I love this sweater material, the warm colors, and the gold platforms! Everything about this line is perfect, especially the idea of color blocking the sweaters!

Nasir Mazhar
Different is not even the word! I appreciate a designer who not only thinks outside of the box, but completely ignores the box altogether! That's what I feel this artist did. It puts me in the mind of a Missy Elliot video. If you are not familiar with her, she is also outside the box with her style! The patterns are unforgettable!
Holly Fulton
A line for a lady! I love the detailing, the graphic depictions, and the feminine patterns. This line had pieces that made it distinct and noticeable.The softer tones and material really pulled me in.

Lucas Nascimento
This line is full of knitwear, which is definitely the go-to material for the season! It is the perfect thick material, but this line made pieces that accentuate a woman's body even though it is a thicker material. There were minimal patterns, which I enjoyed. These pieces were designed so beautifully, they did not need any accessory. Plus the leather boots were marvelous with them!
House of Holland
On the contrary, this line was full of pattern, bright colors, and extraordinary textures! I am either a fan of all things plain or all things busy! This line was so busy and beautiful.

Temperley London- hard to decide just 4!
It was so hard to choose just 4 pictures for this line! I loved it all. The kaleidoscope like print, the fresh faced models, and the beautiful thick scarves and sweaters (not pictured). My favorite thing about this line is the boldness of it. It is a line for a confident, take control woman.
Topshop Unique
I am a growing fan of Topshop (growing because now my bank account is growing and I can afford it), so I knew that I would like this line. Their main pattern was a floral. which is one of my favorites! I enjoy the knit sweaters and am a huge fan of the shorts that were featured. Not many people would associate shorts with the Autumn or Winter time, but their design of them is ideal for those who would.
Paul Smith
This is a line for the woman with the "Anything you can do, I can do better" mentality. The trademark for this show was "Trousers galore". I love that! The masculinity of the pieces is perfectly offset by the femininity of the patterns and colors.
Vivienne Westwood Red Label
My first thought "a sophisticated shoe-shine boy". But there is no way the women wearing these pieces are shining shoes! They are simply shining! I love the 50's feel and the swept back hair on the models. Any line that reminds me of another era or decade is a line for me!
Mary Katrantzou
Attention to detail will always make for a great line! There is so much to look at with these pieces!, whether it is the pattern, the silk-like material, or the geometric pieces. I chose pieces with a lot of graphic design to them, because that made me love the line, but there are pieces with less and are still just as lively.
Matthew Williamson
Once again, a line with vibrant colors and a pattern that made me think of fireworks! It is popping! Plus, I love the black and white runway and the gorgeous lace up booties. The off-shoulder piece pictured was my all time favorite!
Antonio Berardi
The shoes! I am obsessing over the shoes; both styles are perfect! This line is gorgeous with the rigid cut of the pieces and the sophisticated sexy look, but my main attractions was the shoes!
Issa
My favorite part of this line was the geometric pattern and the color choices. There was draping, sweet large sweaters, and a feminine feel that was unmistakable.
David Koma
The leather material was gorgeous! All the pieces were so sleek and chiseled and the colors pop out! It's as if the line was developed by an architect with the attention to lining and the intricate designs. I also love how "matchy" the shoes and outfits are!
Peter Pilotto
First he pairs with Target to develop such a beautiful and affordable line, then he unveils these designs! I am loving Peter Pilotto! The sculpture in the design, the color patterns, the EVERYTHING of this line was perfect! There were thick furs (not pictured) adorning the necks and faces of some models, floral prints, and the shoes are so perfect for all the pieces.
Marques' Almeid
Grunge meets sexy! I can dig it. I love how free flowing and excessive the pieces are. The messy hair on the models completes the look for me; it says "I do not care, because I do not have to". Its an effortlessly stylish line! Plus, I love the cohesiveness of the materials on each other. That denim in this line did it for me!!!
Fashion East
I love how eclectic this line is. It could cater to whatever type of women sees it, which is great! The pieces had a "thrifty" feel to them and with thrifting being so popular, the designers were spot on with the development.
