Maria Grachvogel S/S12 London

September 17, 2011

London Fashion Week is officially here and as always I will be covering it in my dual capacity as stylist/blogger. It all kicked off on Friday with the traditional 9am Paul Costelloe show, followed by Caroline Charles, and then on to Maria Grachvogel, who shows at the Savoy Hotel Ballroom. As usual these were expensive-looking clothes for chic working women, with sheathes of fabric rippling effortlessly across the body, and I especially liked the lime green against the whites and beiges. As an unashamed collector of earrings, I had to focus on the amazing dark metal, armadillo style ones that adorned the models’ ears. This collection is all about easy slip-on-and-look-sexy yet grown up clothes. An elegant setting for elegant wares.
