And Over In London!

     Meanwhile, over in the land of the Royals they had a tastefully exciting Fashion Week full of cupcakes and fabric.  When viewed together it was a week of whimsical meets luxurious meets fluffy marshmallows.  I found that comparing the garments to food not only made for an entertaining time but also created an amusing way to relate to the clothing structure.  Let's begin with breakfast.

     Mulberry's delicious collection consisted of colors like camel, mint, black and white.  First, let's indulge in the chocolate chip pancake look that we see at the top.  The long oversized coat adorned with small black flowers paired with the ever so popular knee length skirt are two practical pieces that are long-lasting.  Carrying on with the camel on camel look the leather top creates this scrumptious muffin top as it softly drapes over the waistline of the pants.  Londoners like their tea with breakfast and this minty outfit flows agains the body so silky smooth with pleats to create a subtle ripple effect.  I'm loving the solid colored outfits that we are seeing throughout this collection. 

     John Rocha's blasted the runway with a fruit salad collection of colors.  Can we please start with the head wear?  That is no cherry on top, it's more like a puff pastry that has consumed the entire plate, if you get what I'm saying.  More over, the dresses all resemble one another with their frilly bodice and similar fabric choices.  From the apple, to the lemon, to the raspberry is a fresh array of beautiful evening wear.  

     Meadham Kirchhoff fruitfully designed an out of the box and over the top collection, as usual.  From top to bottom, the marshmallow puffed overcoat with azure blue bows trickling down the from made for an unusual and individual look.  The cupcake puff skirt paired with checkered mid-thigh shorts was such a picnic friendly sight to see.  Lastly, to throw a little lemon zest on top, the full body jumper was quite attractive and the whipped cream bows with cherry colored gems put the icing on the cake for Kirchhoff.

Now I'm starving!
