Leia Bossum brought elegance to day 3.

Extravagant make-up and inventive body jewellery

This collection by Sonia Bienek was truly wonderful. The colours and techniques used get top marks from us




This was an eclectic collection by Babs Behan with lots of different looks and influences.

What a showpiece. Really stunning!

This collection by Mary Radcliffe and Lucy Tiffney was a riot of colour and the designs, so impressive.

This was one of our favourite collections as it was so vibrant.
All four looks by Mary Radcliffe and Lucy Tiffney are winners
Incredibly good outfits, the attention to the back was just as fantastic as the front.
Great personal touches and customising
A well thought out beautifully crafted collection by Georgia Nash on day 2. Refreshing inclusion of lingerie.

A show-stopping end to a great collection

Our favourite Georgia Nash design
One of the nicest people we met was Katie Karara. She kindly mentioned us on a great blog she did on AFW.

She is a talented fashion and textiles designer who has an innovative approach to fashion full of personality. Her blogs of afw are really great : http://katiekarara.blogspot.co.uk/

United4Change
We became good friends with the people from United4Change who had a stall at AFW as part of their Fashion for Change campaign.We we're really impressed with charity work they were doing in Kibera, Kenya which is the largest slum in Africa. 

"The United4Change vision is to gather and knit together people across the globe from all different walks of life and educate, inspire and empower them to creatively and actively challenge poverty and social injustice. We aim to make a difference in the lives of the world’s poorest by discovering ways to empower and equip people to transform their own lives and consequently their own communities, thus breaking the cycle of poverty forever."
