Obscure Couture @ London Fashion Week

Obscure Couture at London Fashion Week on Monday.


Designers Lyndsay Pagan and Jennifer Coyle worked tirelessly to create this superb collection for London Fashion Week from their base in Glasgow's East End. Battling freezing temperatures and burst pipes, the designers even had to wear ski suits to stay warm enough to work at times! These girls are great.

The witty Bonnie Bling jewellery was specifically designed for the collection by Mhairi Mackenzie. 

Obscure Couture are on facebook.

Yvan Rodic - The Facehunter


Yvan "The Facehunter" Rodic.

I met Yvan at Somerset House. You can see him 'face hunting' in New York via this sweet new film, the same gingham jacket even makes an appearance. Have to admit though, this clip is making me reflect on just how close to train spotters we street style bloggers can get...



Jay Parker - London Fashion Geek

Last Fashion Week, at the Johnny Blueeyes show, I spotted Jay's mesmerizing 'inked' fingers and asked him for a picture. We became pals instantly.

Jay's just written the most flattering post about our friendship on his brand new blog London Fashion Geek. Thank you Jay, I feel exactly the same. x

Not sure how he can top this though!


Apartness - Pop Surrealism Exhibition @ Recoat

Pretty sure this is the first time I've ever said to a stranger... "I'd love it if you'd put your head right here for me, just below the tits, that's fantastic."

You can see Chris' work at the Amended Lines group exhibition which opens this Tuesday evening (Feb 15th 6-9pm), at Glasgow Print Studios.

The 'Apartness' opening night was actually so rammed that I came back the next day to get a better look at the walls...
