LFW Day 2: Vivienne Westwood

Following the Lako Bukia show at VFS, I dashed over to the Vivienne Westwood Red Label show produced by My Beautiful Fashion at Smithfield Market in Farringdon. It was a solid collection, the music by JBAG was appropriate as always and the show attracted a healthy dose of star power as expected; I spotted the likes of Kelis, Pamela Anderson and Tracy Emin in attendance. Some of the hair pieces reminded me of Jodie Harsh's signature Charlie Le Mindu wig and to be honest I probably spent more time inspecting the sculpted hair creations than the clothes. Here are a few photos I took at the show:

LFW Day 2: Lako Bukia

I kicked off the second day of LFW with the Lako Bukia SS12 show at Vauxhall Fashion Scout for which I did the soundtrack. I created an original bespoke remix of Arcade Fire's The Suburbs (Continued) which I mixed in with Nicolas Jaar's exquisite remix of Azari & III and Caribou's remix of Radiohead. For the finale I chose the upbeat synth-pop sound of Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) by Arcade Fire to contrast with the minimal soundtrack of the main show.

Lako's delicate and beautiful collection mixed Asian-influenced style and prints with a contemporary minimal design to flattering and striking effect, the flowing chiffon dresses were complimented by structured uniform pieces that retained a soft element in their boldness with a red, black and white color palette. Gorgeous.

Below is a photo I took backstage, the full video of the show and a link to stream just my soundtrack featuring my original remix of Arcade Fire as well as a link to download.
