Last Friday to kick off Clothes Over Peoples' LFW we went to the In Moda fashion show in Shoreditch. It was a great show with designers showcasing their astonishing collections which not only made me want to find somewhere to wear these amazing clothes but also made me think about some bigger issues like climate change.
Two of the collections that really stood out to me were the CrysChrisCouture collection and the Clime It Brothers collection.
The CrysChrisCouture collection was full of beautiful and elegant pieces that would make you stand out in any room. I was also lucky enough to meet the designer beforehand and for the first time in my life being early for something- I guess there was some truth in that early bird, worm saying. The designer, Margaret was so nice and still looked amazing even after working all day preparing for the show and barely having anything to eat but some dry bread! Her hard work paid off as her collection definitely astonished everyone including myself and my sister.
The Clime It Brothers collection was another one of my favourites. Their collection was street wear and so was full of t-shirts and jumpers with stunning prints on them that envisioned polar bears and melting ice caps as a result of climate change. It reminded me that fashion isn't always just done for fun or to make a profit but it is also a great platform to use for bringing attention to important issues that we all need to look at.
Here are some pics of all the other collections including designs from My Address Book and Catomic.
And of course this post wouldn't be complete if we didn't show you some pictures of the outfits we wore to the event.
