#LFW – Mini Show Report – Topshop Unique AW13

#LFW - Mini Show Report - Topshop Unique AW13

I was disappointed with last few Topshop Unique season, having been bowled over by Spring Summer 2011 (remember the big frizzy hair and long flowing disco outfits?) so I was really pleased to see such fab looks for AW13, despite them being (the dreaded) 90s derived. Visually sleek and simple with strong block colours and clothes that looked easy enough to wear. I love the wool trousers in rusty brown above and the cheeky little knit pattern on the jumper below. Midriffs everywhere (in keeping with the nineties revival soundtrack, obvs), but realistically, on shorter than model types you’ll probably find there’s enough material to meet your waistband. There was a lot of tech hype around this show to do with live streaming on You Tube and on Google+ from every possible angle including a model’s POV (on, who else, but Cara D) and being able to buy the looks straight off the catwalk which sounds like the way forward to me. You can watch the show here – the amazing underground concrete space is the Tanks at the Tate Modern.
