Marc Jacobs

New York Fashion Week has now come to an end with Marc Jacobs' ready to wear collection being one of the last. He was inspired by tropical prints and colours which looked stunning against the backdrop of the cavernous armoury. Apparently there was no music soundtrack, just the sound of the swishing of fabric. It's great to see such a wide use of print and pattern and the gorgeously bright colour palette.

Of course it's that time of year when the Autumn/Winter fashion shows are in full force, from Paris to London to New York, models are strutting their stuff. As a colour-lover, I'm very happy to see that there are a lot of brights around and that the colour-blocking trend is still in full force. I think my favourite collection was Narciso Rodriguez, a designer who specialises in subtlety but who has used brilliantly loud colour with asymmetrical, pieced together items to create some stunning outfits. The results were elegant and crisp.
