Bora Aksu Spring Summer 2012
At Bora Aksu the runway was strewn with rose petals and we were taken into a bygone era.
There was an Edwardian theme running with long skirts, hoops, petticoats and soft pastel colours.
Simple tunics were worn over loose fitting trousers very feminine.
As the show progressed soft roses and then turquoise overlayed the pastel base tones.
Finishing with several black dresses which were rather lovely.
This is the back view so romantic, feminine and entirely different………….

Boru Aksu SS10
25th London Fashion Week Anniversary: I was waiting for the fashion designers coming back “ home” after years of absence, front rows full again by big fashion industry names ( Anna Wintour, Vogue USA & Franca Sozzani, Vogue ITALIA in primis) , celebrities, sumptuous parties.
Basso Brooke SS10
And show after show, the feeling I had was that the “Londoners” decided to celebrate this important event on the runway as well, catalysing the crowd.
Issa SS10
It is impossible the attention of the viewers has not been attracted by the singularity of fabrics: they take life building the silhouette garments, in particular little dresses, creating optical effects extremely intriguing.
