With the London Fashion Week in full swing, a question of
`fashion show appropriate attire` comes to mind, as style doyennes contemplate
`what to wear where`. It used to be so easy – one would put on a dress by the
designer whose front row (or any other row) one was invited to seat at. Then, the `look` for a fashion show changed, and 2 leading,
but opposing options, were created: to appear casually dressed in jeans and a boyfriend`s jumper (but accessorised with a
Rolex and a Prada bag), or to dress up immaculately, with exaggerated elegance,
complemented with some real `bling`. And now? What is `fashion show suitable` now?
Over the years, I have had a few hits, as well as 1 or 2
misses, but my most successful look came out at DAKS London Fashion Week`s
Spring/Summer 2012 show. A few days before, I purchased an oversized dress
(looks good only on a slim frame) from a pop up boutique, in London`s Carnaby
Street. Designed by a talented fashion student, it is made of neoprene (wet
suit material) and fur. Part nonchalant, part glam (the fur) solution.

Perfect for standing out from fashion crowd, and models who
looked as if they last ate anything in Autumn/Winter 2009.
