Having followed blogger Prince Cassius for a while! Finally managed to catch him at Trousers London Press show at The Hospital Club today! I guess it would be where he would be hanging out . Since really `The best dressed man in town` has a canny eye for a good cut and Trousers Londons jeans are just the best.

The Wondrous Jeff Garner and Prophetik - Artist Wonderment show
This show is always the most amazing ever, not surprising when you cross a published poet and a truly talented designer! Jeff Garners Artist Wonderment show is `inspired by the court of Louis XV, when art became frivolous, a slave to consumers, diseased of romantic snobbery,pretending to be what they are not. The season exudes the freedom from the pretense of being what we would become fleeing from egotism into the wonderment of an artist`
Ripped silks and organic velour are juxtaposed with 150year old southern quilts from Garners grandmother!
Thick and heavy hemp skirts vi for our attention with the glorious pants,breeches and pantaloons shown on both men and women!
Colours are earth based hues of white ,black chainmail plum violet deep scarlet and burgundy! a true festival champetre!
LIBERTY should just grab the whole collection its AMAZING!

The Rise of British Manufacturing at the Lingerie Collective AW 2011!
Belinda Robertston
Fred and Ginger
Nikki Noo
Mint Siren
Although there were loads more these had to be my favourites!
I mean check out the cashmere socks manufactured and woven in Scotland that come in a variety of colours and styles, short and ribbed or plain and over the knee., also they're fabulously gift boxed and priced start at £50 from http://www.belindarobertson.co.uk/ for AW2011.
Victoria Holt the designer behind Fred&Ginger one of my favourite designers versed in the art of elegant seduction has created the most romantic of all collections based on the Ballet Russes, soft Pinks and Champagnes. A symphony of silk lame chiffon that glistens in its barely there hue .... bras , briefs and shifts are all given her special magic potion for the AW2011.
Nikki Noo`s very simple full and half slips are just a real steal starting at £50 they are just about the only thing around for this kind of garment...plus also can conceivably double as a summer shift dress on the beach with flats!
Mint Siren by Josefine Wing is a stylists dream inspired by the 70s Peace and Love movement uses a light neutral colour for SS11 and the whole back to nature theme. Particularly loving the Love Poncho and Bikini briefs Not forgetting her popular leather strap accessories!
All these terribly talented designers are made in the UK. Now who said that manufacturing in the UK was
dead ..............definitely not in lingerie my darlings !!

ILLAMASQUA- British, Independent flippin AMAZING colours..also for BOYS!
Obviously Illamasqua has been around coming up to a year now, with shops in Selfridges and Beak street! But I really haven’t really had a proper chance to see close up. So SHOCK, SURPRISE at the press event of Lucy in disguise I was introduced to the PIGMENTS by the hand of Clare one of their chief make up artists!(she is based at the Beak street shop). WOW! Certain to rival MAC. Made by Kryolan the German Giant for makeup artists who in their 60years of being have not tested on Animals once! Policy!
Not sure where to begin.......... Foundations long lasting with complete cover! Silver, Gold metallic eye shadow intense!
Colour ranges extensive and bright. Pricing starting at £14 upwards so pretty affordable!
But my favourite really are the eyelashes (check Clare`s above) they’re really hitting the spot, had to rush out at buy for all my gorgeous girls !
