The Pringle of Scotland collection is a style sensation

The collection: Designer Clare Waight Keller knows how to put on a show. Everything about this collection impressed me – from the neutral colour palette to the short dresses with fab rock ‘n’ roll belts, chunky cable knits and her cool and classic combinations. I was also excited to see Anna Wintour sitting on the front row working her blackberry – and those statement black shades. What a legend!
The wish list: I’ve got my eye on the collection’s fab short grey sexy dress.
The style: Tilda Swinton deserves a mention for her chic and elegant white trouser suit and her fantastic short crop hairstyle.

Joanne Black's official show invitation

The collection: Sienna and Savannah Miller’s Houngonikon-themed collection was a heady mix of sexy lycra dresses, swimsuits, mini skirts, cropped vests and 80s style jumpsuits – all worn with hairbands. It was a show with as many cultural references as there were outfits, but with such a wonderful warehouse setting, this event was not to be missed.
The wish list: The black and white vest body top would look great in my wardrobe.
The style: As the last to arrive and first to leave, the show – and its audience – went by in a bit of a blur. I did, however, love the music by Jim Morrison.
