I was lucky enough to be invited to the London college of fashion showcase. Before the show I was excited for the chance to see some new and fresh design ideas and I was definitely not disappointed. The London college of fashion show might have been a little tricky to find but once I arrived I was taken back by the originality and fun behind the designs.
Sporting an unmissable afro to rival that off Prince the talented Sade London was impossible to ignore as she and the other models wore her spectacular designs. Sadly to my disappointment there was no "Afro off" but this was the only aspect of the night that didn't exceed expectations!
I can think of few ways to describe these designs - my best attempt is mix seem a touch of inspiration from the fetish trends of late, a little rock chic from the likes of Lady Gaga and a whole bunch of originality. If you are looking for a fresh take on fashion look no further.
I love the unashamed strength and almost warrior-esque inspiration combined with an influx of feminine sexuality. Although the pictures don't show all the details all models had beautifully coordinated hair, makeup and nails with a precision to detail rarely seen.
With her futuristic and detail orientated pieces Sade London is definitely a designer to watch and the collaboration with Miko Spinelli brings the perfect touch of fun to fashion.
So if you want to make the fashion grade it's well worth keeping an eye out for future collections.

The people
The press were invited in droves to look at all the new talent.
Food and Drinks
Despite a student showcase the champagne flowed generously all night and there was an orange juice option for the teetotal amongst us. The one drawback was the waiters were so attentive it became very easy to lose track of quite how much champagne you were drinking!
Blonde moment
Despite being a more low key event there were plenty of opportunities for me to have a moment. Thinking it was finished two hours early counts as one (the display cabinets were on timer) getting lost en-route and taking a half hour detour in heels only to end up minutes away from where I started are both contenders. However, the blonde moment of the night had to losing track of how much champagne I had drunk and needing an emergency coffee. Oops - note to self - lightweight alert
