Inside view of Vauxhall fashion scout

While most the fashion community was absorded in London fashion week shows being held at Somerset house. I was blanking these out and focused on the shows taking place in the Manson building...Vauxhall fashion scout London's leading innovative fashion showcase.

I was offered the opportunity to intern for them and well how could I say no. I started four days before the shows where set to start, there just to help out.It was glamourous, it hard, sweaty work, as we prepared for the shows, building benches, making seating plans, painting and carrying furniture, putting together rails and mannequins, setting up media rooms, showrooms...fetching supplies. I loved tho it was a great chance to see how the shows come to life. It wasn't for everyone in the prep time there were roughly 8ish interns, day before the show 80 turn up.

However I didn't manage to get enough time off to help out or even see a show. Theres all ways next year. But here are a few of my favs from this year.

James Small

Slick tailoring and classics with an edge, it was complete English gentlemen very dapper with a modern vibe.

Ziad Ghanem

Fashion is about the unexpected and Ziad Ghanem was brought this in oddles! A dramatic circus of circus of pomp, an explosion on volume, hard work lace, boned corsets, beards and ruffles.

The models really made this show, quirky models where chosen that really showcased the creativity and innovation.
