Jena Theo, who have moved from BFC main tent to OnOff drew quite a crowd, they had to shut the doors as it was beyond full, even Fringe legend Colin McDowell was left without a seat.
It was a move away from last season in the sense the tropical ethnic vibe became total rock chick!
Grungy tones and styling meant that these models were seriously bad ass; if fashion did a rock festival it would look like this! Voluminous cuts, circle backs with draped armholes and deconstructed shirt dresses in a host of monochrome and sludge colours. A huge, puffa style parka that was well structured stood out as a highlight. I loved the mix of leather panels within garments to give the collection a modern edge and the drapery of the silks were so soft yet so structured. Incredibly strong work, from a duo that seem to grow season on season.

Paul Costelloe
I love that Paul always kicks of LFW and this year he was there again all guns blazing.
With a distinctly 60's theme there was a lot of swinging music to go with full swing coats that shot out straight from the shoulders.
Short, cute jackets with full skater skirts are back in for AW11 a look I am totally converted to. In bright tweed tones of reds, mustard, purple, turquoise and green the colours were muted yet bright. The wools looked luxurious and the cut and fullness was perfectly proportioned.
Metallic brocade (something Paul always done) was in 80's tones of green, red and pink, again using full swinging shifts as the silhouettes. I loved the mix of eras and the prim yet edgy vibe. It felt totally modern but with heritage twists, I'm starting to save up now!

The Wanted for RANDOM magazine
We shot The Wanted on 17/12/10, their last shoot before the Christmas break and there was plenty of Christmas cheer! We shot in the Park Lane Hilton in this fantastic suite!
The boys were absolute sports, dressing up into the suited and booted looks we laid on for them!
This was one of the looks and in true Winter spirit, I went for black and red tones, we did a lot of suiting, check shirts and 60's mod skinny suits and polo tops. We made it a bit younger with trainers from Puma and Adidas, which the boys walked off with in great glee! Merry Christmas!
Our photographer had to take a shot for Boyz magazine, who wanted the boys in white tees and christmas hats! They looked so cute!
Here is Siva swapping twitter deets, the boys spent plenty of time tweeting!

Jessie J
Went to see Jessie J at X0Y0
The best thing since sliced bread! I'd been watching Jessie progress on myspace but this blew me away! The room was rammed and everyone was going crazy, I felt like I was witnessing something special! 'Do it like a Dude' is my track of 2010 and I can't wait to see more of Jessie in 2011, the UK's answer to Rihanna for sure!

Monsoon press day
But Monsoon press day was most beautiful, 50's and 70's were the theme and the layout and attention to detail to the ambience was just as amazing as the collection! Monsoon is my home for SS11 I love a good 50's frock!

RANDOM PARTY 3.2

Well, while the issue of 3.2 has nearly sold out! (You can still grab a copy online RANDOM)
Last night we headed to Concrete for a few drinks and bands to celebrate!

We had 3 great bands playing, Eddie kicked off the evening and raised the tempo in the room!
We decided to go for a rock inspired do, paired with this seasons must have fabric velvet. An emerald green velvet Anya Wilkinson dress and a one off, elastic band and light up jacket by JMD (Jeffrey Michael Design).
They totally smashed it (even if i'm a tiny bit biased).

Next up was electric pop duo 'Ghost Cat'. I loved Aileen's powder pink outfit with cat print, it was so super cute! I'm a huge Ghost Cat tune fan and its really cool to see the fusion of digital and vocal unfolding on stage.

Finally 'Pictures of Belgrade', an indie rock band, drums and guitars galore!
