Celebrating 40 years of Browns Fashion

I was lucky enough to see the Browns' 40th anniversary commemorative exhibition behind Carnaby Street before it closed. The exhibition started with a Missoni dress and Cacharel suit (above) as they were some of the first labels stocked and had old and new designer greats including Alexander McQueen, Al, Albert Elbaz for Lanvin, Ralph Lauren, Mark Fast, Karl Lagerfield for Chloe, David Korma, Alexander Wang and more with beautiful portraits of fashion figures with the clothes displayed.

Chanel 2011 Cruise show

It followed the screening of Karl Lagerfeld's short film Remember Now yesterday. The show itself was really nice but then again I am not the type of person who needs a cruise wardrobe.

Key words:crop tops, denim, bare feet, flowery, bling sandals/belts, gingham swimwear, pastel colours/ beige trend continues, 70s, obi belt, flared brown trousers, sheer flowered body suit, monochrome.

My favourite look was worn by Georgia May Jagger

love love LOVE the boots.

Is there anyone else who agrees she is over-rated??

Crystal Renn is supposed to be a plus sized model but she looks slim to me. She's lost weight for sure which undermines all the opinion that the fashion industry is celebrating curves. She's only there as she's lost weight and she might lose even more.

Then, because we were in the South Kensington/Knightsbridge area, we went to Harrods to swoon over beautiful shoes and dresses we couldn't afford.

A Herve Ledger which I loved even more than the gold one I view regularly on net-a-porter. So perfect for spring with unexpected edge.

This dress would have been my Grecians ball dress had money been no object... and if my ball was this year. I had wanted a gold dress but settled for metallic grey.

The real McCoy. Chanel Clogs. It was like viewing the original art which had been poorly imitated.
