At Falguni and Shane Peacock’s Spring /Summer 2011 I was blown away. I didn’t know what to expect, for my top 6 London Fashion Week shows, this husband and wife team Falguni and Shane Peacock’s collection had it all and showed astonishing pieces.  Beautiful crafted graphic print floaty maxis to hard-wear studded body con dresses there was something special for the occasion. Throughout this collection we saw a common armour theme, featuring shoulder pads, Bra cups, belts, metal plates, and even knee pads on trousers.

Graphic prints had a certain original look about them the collection was inspired by animals, ‘under the threat of extinction’ the prints in this collection resembles scales, bees and tiger stripes. They were so many favourites of mine in this collection, I loved the yellow and black graphic print body with oversized studded Perspex shoulder pads.  Astonishing collection dresses and bodysuits all teamed up with sheer black tights and black tights socks.

I truly love to own one of this piece in my wardrobe it is futuristically sexy, super hero. I am in love with the two Indian designer, I’m already thinking and looking forward to what I will see from them next season.

I like that, they kept the Hair down and make-up with black eyeliner was kept equally simple.

Celebrities at the front row : Jimm Choo, Michelle Williams, Abigall Clancy, Miss Universe 1994 Sushamita Sen.

Check out their S/S 11 collection on www.fashion-clocking.blogspot.com one of my ideal show at this year’s LFW.

Folk clothing is a London based company founded by Cathal Mcateer in 2001. The clothing lines are all about honest, clean and easy pieces, with dashes of colour, a variety of fabrics and intricate design detailing. Folk draws its inspiration for the clothing range from all kinds of sources from what they see in London on the way to work, to the general street styles all over the world. Due to the specific designs and high calibre finish of the clothing, the Folk designers literally search the globe to find the right materials and factories to produce the clothing. They currently manufacture jackets in Hong Kong, knitwear in Uruguay and accessories in their native England, so there is a very diverse production base. Due to the increasing success of their clothing range in 2004 Folk branched out into the footwear market in the shape of their sister brand Shofolk. The shoes are designed by the same team that design the clothing range and you can clearly see this reflected in how they use different fabrics, shapes and styles to create functional and stylish footwear. Shofolk take classic designs such as the dessert boot and add a twist to it. The shoes are hand crafted in Portugal from natural raw leather. The men’s footwear collection started out with hand stitched moccasin style shoes, but has now progressed to include track sole shoes, and the desert boot. They use a variety of colours to keep the range different and exciting which helps them to stand out from the crowd. Folks 2010 spring summer collection has a real retro work wear feel to it. From huge chunky waffle knit cardigans, to the chambray style distressed shirts. The collection has a real light and fresh feel, with perforation detail on the Henley tops, to uber bright coloured t-shirts. The perfect pieces of Folk clothing to profile their spring/summer collection is the blue stripe long sleeve undergarm knit, with its contrast bright yellow cuffs, and perforation detailing. The second piece would be their navy lightweight cotton over shirt jacket. This is a perfect example of a work wear jacket, with its vintage finish, front pocket detailing, region adjusters, all of which give this crown a more durable feel. The work wear crown is bang on trend for this season with its hard wearing easy clean styling, and it perfectly encompasses the Folk ethos for summer 2010. Folk have two main stores, both of which can be found in London. One is situated in Lambs Conduit Street, and the other is on Brick Lane Drey Walk. The stores have a very realistic clean feel to them with lots of wood, white walls, old vintage furniture, and equipment from old gyms displaying the clothes. As with the clothing Folk have managed to make the stores feel fresh and inviting, showing their playful and carefree side, without being too pretentious or over the top. Folk clothing is the perfect accompaniment for those lazy Sunday afternoons in the park.
