| Blowout or Budget |

Joshua Kane £1,550 | Up To One £193

Joshua Kane is a master of elegant, some-what eccentric, men’s tailoring. So it was no wonder Oliver Proudlock chose to debut his bespoke ‘The Fawcett’ Houndstooth coat during LFW. For £1,550 you are gaining excellence in quality, but if that’s a little over what you would like to pay for such a bold piece of outerwear, look no further than Up To One’s version with a much smaller price tag.

| Blowout or Budget |

Diesel £260 | ASOS £55

The embroidered bomber is this seasons signature style of outerwear, with Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Dries Van Noten all heavily featuring the design in their SS16 collections. Street style innovators were seen to have already caught on, with the jacket a recurrent trend on the pavements of London Fashion Week last month. Otherwise known as the ‘souvenir jacket’, it originated in post-WWII Japan when occupying American soldiers commissioned them to commemorate their time overseas. Based on traditional design with a contemporary notion, hunt out embroideries with Far Eastern-inspired prints including cranes, birds of paradise and palm trees. Sophie, one of our photographers, captured Mikko Vaino wearing his Diesel eagle-motif bomber on route to the LFW show space. His jackets virile aesthetic and sports-lux details make it the ideal accompaniment to any gentlemen’s wardrobe, as long as you have the generous budget to go with it. But even if you are after a smaller price-tag ASOS’s version tells the same story, or get extra points by hunting down an original souvenir jacket from a vintage stockist.

| Is This Fashion? |

Captured outside the runway shows in Brewer Street Carpark during LFW. The emoji printed tracksuit, pink backpack, pink sprayed mohican and futuristic sun-rays, scream look at me! But who can blame him, because he had everyones attention.

Xiao Li subtlety encompassed the concept of time into her show with carefully cut out clock faces woven in the pattern of her lace-like structures and a shrill tick-tock playing throughout the show space.
