LCM: A Child of The Jago

Truth be told, I still don’t know quite what to make of the eccentric, East London-based duo’s schedule appearance. It was half-way between a static presentation and all out catwalk show: the evidently intoxicated models lolled around like lost sheep on the runway space, cackling as they posed for the

LCM Interview: James Long

Moving in a more somber – yet equally as beautiful – direction than previous seasons, James Long’s collection drew from a palette of predominately navy, black, white and grey.

While all the trademark pieces of the celebrated NewGen recipient remained; gorgeous knitwear, this season embellished with metallics; leather and a hint of …

LCM Interview: Alex Mattsson

Ooh err, the intimacy of the off-schedule show. The first of the weekend was tucked a stone’s throw away from our LCM base in a cosy pop-up shop. Five beaut boys posed and pouted jesting among themselves as they skanked along to the thumping techno tunes.

Truth be told I …

LCM: Christopher Shannon

At last, the one we’ve been waiting for. With his SS13 collection Christopher Shannon, mainstay of the London menswear scene, has grown up. The last few collections have been up and down in terms of detail and finish (although always massively strong on ideas and creative) and occasional lapses in

LCM: Jonathan Saunders

Mr Saunders’ men’s collections takes appropriately and perfectly from his blockbuster women’s looks; utilising similar materials and colour palettes, the latest darling of London’s menswear scene showed garments that justify his position as one of the must-see shows of Saturday.

The venue was packed out, but the wait was ostensibly …

LCM: Spencer Hart

Housed within the Old Selfridges Hotel, tucked in amongst the hustle and bustle of the store itself, we were invited to witness Nick Hart’s homage to London.

The venue itself seemed to foreshadow a sense of classic elegance with a gritty edge; we were presented with a whole new definition of men’s formal dressing. Silhouettes and cuts inspired by traditional Savile Row know-how were …

LCM: Baartmans & Siegel

Kicking off the final day of LCM was one of our most-anticipated shows of the whole weekend. London’s Wouter Baartmans and Amber Siegel are the most lovely design duo we’ve met, and each season, their collections grow in scope and ambition.

This time around, inspired by Cuban crab invasions (much …

LCM Interview: Fashion East – T.Lipop

Set in the fabulous (but faraway) confines of a lavish Carlton Gardens townhouse Tom Lipop was one of the twelve designers handpicked by the Fashion East pioneer – Lulu Kennedy – to partake in the catwalk alternative which has gone from strength to strength in its three year reign.

Tom …

LCM: Katie Eary

Katy Eary’s SS13 show was beyond cool. We might even go as far as to say it was ice cool.

With a strong skater vibe – if we could actually skate we’d totally be rocking an Eary printed board – boxy shorts were layered over slim legged trousers and paired …

LCM: Joseph Abboud

Joseph Abboud has come to London for the first time in the brand’s history to showcase its SS13 collection. And their American influence is clearly evident in the collection’s choice of red, white and blue colour palette.

An old-school, preppy, tennis-esque vibe emulated throughout the collection with a mixture of …
