Hey!

Welcome to The Very Simon G. My blog has been going for nearly a decade, but there ain’t getting away from me just yet! Come in for fashion, fun and everything in between. Enjoy!

London Collections: Men - Martine Rose's masked men...

Well actually, less masked, more just tights-over-head men.

Here's the thing, I bought a Martine Rose shirt two years ago and instantly fell in love. It's orange waxed cotton with two big blue and pink circles on either side with zips going round them. Hard to explain but amazing. And this new collection from Martine showed a new side to the designer, one that is a move away from just incredible shirting. One (me) wonders if maybe she's bitten off more than she can chew?!

Seeing it up close however, maybe I was wrong to think this being marched down the catwalk.

Handprints embossed onto the backs of jackets and shirts were rather special. And seeing the catwalk finale, shot on my amazing Nokia Lumia, obviously, I'm starting to rather like the palette of orange, blues, whites and snake skin.
