London fashion Week: Day 3 : Esthetica Brunch , Olivia Palermo, Vivienne Westwood Red Label and Dinner with a client :)

Although I felt extremely exhausted today after all the shows, working and running from venue to venue I managed to eventually get out of bed and get ready to head out to the Esthetica Brunch at Somerset House.

The Esthetica brunch hosted by Harold Tillman, Chairman, British Fashion Council, showcased a selection of eco conscience designers with beautiful and innovative products.

I really liked Supermodel Erin O’Connor and vintage designer/stylist Kate Halfpenny’s T-shirt collection entitled ‘She died of beauty’. They were simple yet fun!

After the Esthetica I brunch I managed to have a quick chat with the stunning fashionista and The City star Olivia Palermo who was in London. She was so lovely and nothing near as how horrid she is portrayed in The City!

Below is a quick snap of us in Covent Garden

Vivienne Westwood Red Label

It was finally that moment I had been waiting for all day! Yes the Vivienne Westwood Red Label show time! Me and my bff Mary headed down nice and early as we were fully aware of the chaos and queuing!

I spotted a range of celebrities and fashion elites arriving at the venue which included the beautiful couple Rochelle (from the Saturdays) and Marvin (from JLS), Tolula Adeyemi (Vivienne's muse), Pamela Anderson and Nicola Roberts from Girl's Aloud.

The collection was outstanding off course and what was nice was seeing a voluptuous Daisy Lowe strutting down the Catwalk representing real women.

Below are some pics of her beautiful, bold and structured tailoring...

Dinner with designer Lida O'Reilly and Bollywood actress/singer Sofia Hayat.

To end my evening I met up with leading Mauritian designer Lida O'Reilly whose London Fashion Week show will be taking place on Tuesday and Bollywood actress and singer Sofia Hayat for dinner at Pizza Express. We went through a few things and visited the show venue to ensure everything was in place and then I was off home for some much needed sleep

Prophetik : ECO- Chic Voila!

Next stop was the Prophetik show at the Freemasons hall in Covent Garden. This US brand which made its London Fashion Week debut last season. Prophetik is an eco label by Tennessee poet and designer Jeff Garner.

The collection was inspired by “Innocent love, the Venus Botticelli and Gone with the Wind set in a midnight garden” as described by the designer himself.


I really loved the messy plaited hair look and simple make-up used.

One of my favourite pieces was a stunning blue gown (see below). Simply gorge!

The collection is currently sold in London at Colin Firth's wife Livia Giuggioli's boutique in Chiswick.
