Colour is order of the day at Duro Olowu's presentation

Duro Olowu's pink dress is on my wish list.

The collection: If you are looking to add colour to your wardrobe, you need Duro Olowu in your life. It was business as usual for Olowu, who wowed us with fantastic colours and silk fabrics from his latest collection. Inspired by the colours of Picasso’s ‘Mosqueteros’ paintings, feather textiles of ancient Peru and 125th Street in Harlem, Olowu’s presentation was extraordinary and, with the chance to view the clothes up-close on mannequins, a rare fashionable treat.
The wish list: I’m a big fan of Olowu’s fab pink dress and black and white blouse.
The style: Not often do you find such a relaxed atmosphere and the opportunity to chat to Olowu himself.
