This morning marks the arrival of the Christopher Kane for Topshop collection in stores and online. As expected, the Scottish designer held nothing back, creating a cornucopia of body-con frocks, slinky tees, leggings, jackets, and denim. To take it up a notch, Christopher utilized eyelets, leather, fringe, and funky prints to show off his edgy-pop attitude.

Whitney is always one to test out the hottest trends. The City star is wearing a sexy black mesh flesh dress by Christopher Kane. So cool how the bustier bodice adds a sweet touch while black suede booties inject spunk.

Flamboyant2 and I must be on the same wavelength. We both have nuptials to attend, so that means shopping for a snazzy ensemble. All this wedding talk inspired me to feature her picture-perfect outfit.

Whether they admit it or not, everyone loves sneaking a peek at something they're not supposed to see.
Fashion historian Laird Borrelli's new book Fashion Illustration by Fashion Designers ($27) facilitates just that, by giving us a look at designer's sketches that aren't meant for public consumption.
The newly released book features 250 original sketches from 50 of the world's top designers, including Christian Lacroix, Karl Lagerfeld, Phillip Lim, Rodarte, Christopher Kane, and Giambattista Valli.

London darling Christopher Kane has gone mad for paillettes. While you will also see lots of sheerness in his Fall collection, the two textures complement each other brilliantly. Texture play is a major theme for Kane and proving to be one of his strengths.

If you're not off venturing to exotica or taking risks with avant-garde and the funky bunch, maybe you'd rather stay home and be laid-back. Spring has a diverse group of trends for us to eat up and those seeking solstice can feast their eyes here. Light fabrics and relaxed silhouettes were elegant on the Spring runways — such was the case at Emporio Armani (pictured) where girls looked beyond cool.

The gang of London fashion burglars who have been on the lam since September have finally been apprehended!
The seven men aged between 19 and 43 raided everyone from Christopher Kane to Luella Bartley to Roger Vivier, swiping thousands worth of bags and jewellery. I wonder if they were out for a buck, or just had some very lavishly spoiled girlfriends, sisters, and mothers?
