Fur Coat, No Knickers

Ah, the chubby.

More of that fuzzy, fuzzy pink fur at Prada. So gross, so wrong, so right, so Shampoo. Lawdy.

I’m thoroughly enjoying all the delicious colour in Milan.

I do like a bit of neon, particularly when it manifests itself as knitwear. This slightly disgusting Primark cardigan – complete with bejeweled buttons – will be worn this summer with THE Whistles Carrie skirt for a look that will hopefully be more Christoper Kane/Princess Margaret/Acid, less Princess Tiaamii’s birthday outfit.

Betty Jackson was my first show of LFW, thanks to my buds at Toni&Guy. It was my first IRL Betty Jackson show and I’m not suggesting anything, but it was definitely the best show of hers I’ve ever seen. I just have that effect on people.

I love the big red nubby jackets, the black dress on the middle row – which was faux fur with huge bows on it!!!!!!, and the red silk flowers woven through the hair. Speaking of hair, the look was inspired by Patti Smith so… pretty much perfect.

Other notables; cream rubber tights (Betty! Is that you?), cream rocking horse wedges, and drop waists which actually look doable.

So, for the third season in a row I want just about everything from the {Topshop} Unique collection. Some may scoff at the 101 Dalmations theme but it’s all good with me; Dodie Smith, furry bits, funny hair – what’s not to love? The first coat with dalmatian sleeves, want. The amount of editors with the mac/leather hybrid this season was incredible – a furry version is surely the next logical step. The furry Prada-esque scarf, want. The cocktail dresses, the thirties blouses, the woolly overcoats, the big fucking furry sleeves which we’re seeing EVERYWHERE… want it all.

Although I do agree with Silvio that the dog nose makeup borders a little on;

I’ve never been one for novelty tights; short fat legs aren’t a friend to patterns and prints. Still, I’d make an exception for these Ashish bad boys which are straight up RAD. Also, as someone who tried and failed to embroider on tights during my fashion degree; kudos.

Oblig:

I know a lot of people resent the use of the word ‘sick’ as an adjective, but upon seeing the latest additions to Christopher Kane’s nebula collection I can’t help but describe them as siiiiiiiiick. Featuring his trademark all over prints, the range of t-shirts and hoodies have just been released and are now available at Restir.com for budget prices around about the £500 mark.

Sick.
