LFW: Craig Lawrence Love

Craig Lawrence is a some sort of gold-thread knitting machine. His presentation today, as part of London Fashion Week in Somerset House Portico rooms brought out the magpie in me.
Four etheral models milled around the room, with a centre piece of white stools and a canopy made from a Craig-knit. Fashion types drank bloody marys. I mostly was in awe of the pieces on show.

His technique amazes me. It is literally a sexy chainmail dress.

Lord of the rings lady elves en route to a pre-battle party perhaps.

It's not like I could ever wear anything like this. Aside from not having ridiculously hot bod, I'd probably end up catching a thread in a door and unraveling, being left in nothing but some polka dot knickers.
I did wear a gold sparkley number though, cause I respect Craig's work that much.

All vintage except for the clogs, which are swedish and the black scarf which I borrowed from K'Bell and Nicholas King bracelets

Peace, fi x

I spotted your Swedish Hasbeens at Fearne's show, I loves them. I got some from Yoox a while ago but I accidentally got a size too small and they felt like if I wore them they might bind my feet so I sent them back.
