London Fashion Week is under way and British designers are hoping to regain the clout they had long held in previous years. I'm not entirely convinced that it had ever really gone away to begin with, after all those of us in the states typically love British fashion. However, the UK wants to be sure that their fashion week is looked upon differently than those of New York, Milan and Paris. While London's fashion week still retains fashion giants in the industry such as Vivienne Westwood, Stella McCartney and Matthew Williamson, they overflow with new talent positioning themselves as the future of fashion, not just what is current and now.
When all is said and done, there will have been 65 fashion shows happening in less than a week's time and London is hoping the feeling will be less commercial and more real, targeted to today's woman and not the size zero model. But fashion is fashion after all, and from some of the pictures I've seen from the runways, super thin models are still there in full force.
