This London Fashion Week was one of my favorites — as many seasons as I’ve gone, I really enjoyed getting to focus on the designers that I love, support, and always want to wear. From the presentations, to the shows, chatting with some of my favorite fashion friends, and getting to share some love with my favorite designers backstage — here’s my full LFW recap! 9th seasons a Charm!
SOFIA KAH
Sofia always sets the scene with a great venue (this year at Mark’s Club, one of my favorite member’s clubs in London) Her collection is always stunning — with a variety of regal evening gowns, chic structured suits, lots of mesh, and the signature Sofia Kah Lace.

ASISH
My sister and I attended this season’s Asish show together — showing her the ropes for her first London Fashion Week. This year the runway was all about the hair — just as bold as the patterns, prints, and resurgence of primary colors.
MARY KATRANTZOU
I always look forward to Mary’s show. She’s already killed it this year with her colorful collab with Victoria Secret and once again raised the bar with her rebellious designs, bold colors, feather frenzy, and vibrant statements. With Mary you can always expect a collection that’s fashion-forward — even more inspiring seeing the detail, mood boards, and beauty herself backstage.

PANTS | MARY KATRANTZOU

PETER PILOTTO
The Peter Pilotto show was insane this year — Everything from the grand, historic venue to his extravagant collection was spot on. With Peter, I can always count on a collection that’s tailored, feminine, captivating, and couture. From his suit tops and bottoms, to flowy detailed dresses, there wasn’t a single piece I didn’t love. Always exceptional, always stunning.
JACKET | L’Agence
PANTS | COMMANDO
BODYSUIT | RE/DONE
SHOES | AMINA MUADDI

MARKUS LUPFER
Markus’ A/W19 Collection made me want to head straight for the mountains. I loved the sherpa details of his oversized hoods and gloves. The head to toe red look really caught my eye, along with the winter whites and color blocking. Primary colors were a big deal this season, met with bold patterns — something found consistently from Markus’ collections
DRESS | Xu Zhi
COAT | Xu Zhi
TIGHTS | GUCCI
BOOTS | Paris Texas
HANDBAG | Paris/64
SUNGLASSES | Jimmy Choo
RIXO
From their designs to their presentations, Rixo is always a good time! I felt right at home in their studio 54 showroom held this season at the Paris Cafe in Soho. My favorite looks were the off shoulder polka-dot adorned mini and green houndstooth maxi dress — although every piece from Rixo can easily go straight from Fashion Week to real life.
SUIT | Tibi
CLUTCH | The Daily Edited
SUNGLASSES | Fendi
David Koma
My love for David and his brilliant designs goes way back. His collections are always strong, powerful, full of rock and roll and embellished details. This is a brand that I not only love seeing down the runway, but always buy season after season. This year, his striking red dresses won me over and you can immediately appreciate his craft for structured silhouettes as David’s army rocked the runway.
SUIT | DAVID KOMA
EARRINGS | DANNI JO
MAKEUP | ESTEE LAUDER
DIOR
Nothing is more memorable than a scent… especially the scent of the flowers in every room of Maison Christian Dior — Dior Parfums hosted the most magical evening in their enchanting Holy Peony Garden to launch the new home fragrance. From the home sprays to signature candles, Dior truly blossomed into the perfect place to round off fashion week.
BOOTS | DIOR
BAG | DIOR
FUND FAIR with Luisa Via Roma
One of the highlights of fashion Week was getting to attend Naked Heart Foundation’s Fund Fair with Luisa Via Roma with Gregor. I wore a favorite Peter Pilotto Dress and beautiful Aspinal of London Clutch gifted from this years’ presentation, and got to join many of my fashion friends for a great cause, raising over 800,000 which will go to children with autism, down’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other special needs, as well as creating inclusive play facilities for children of all abilities.
