Let’s Claim Her!
Have you ever noticed Australia's tendency to claim from other countries as our own? This mostly is in reference to athletes and actors but if there is any shred of evidence of time spent living, working here then they're as good as 'Aussie'. Well, in keeping sport with the situation, we've found someone new to call our own; couture jewellery designer and milliner Carianne Moore.

Eluise
In certain respects, there are similarities sought between the Danish and Australian fashion industries. Youth and temperament for design seem to be the most common match. Much like Rosemount's Summer 2010 schedule last year, Copenhagen's winter was alive with designers in their infancy, Eluise being one such label.

The Return Of Risto
With an exotic name that just rolls of the tongue, there's almost an expectation to the kind of clothes Risto Bimbiloski designs. Nuances of colour, clothing that is richly decorated and adorned.

Missing Lines & Hard Shapes
We really like Danish design label Won Hundred's relaxed sophistication. Slim silhouettes, classic tailoring, functional fashion. A minimalist label, Won Hundred creates a style where each season sees subtle shifts in details and proportions, all the while staying true to an original aesthetic.

The Slippery Spiral Situation
Vibskov is one of those rare designers who exists entirely in a universe of his own. In the collective imagination fashion is a synonym for clothes, but for Vibskov fashion is a sense, a visual language. He presents his ideas and concepts as live events, a collaboration where the boundary between the worlds of art and fashion is creatively blurred, all the while rejecting transient fashion trends.

Dovetailed
Dovetailed, Dress Up's winter collection, has all the hallmarks we've come to expect from designer Stephanie Downey. Softly spoken, loosely tailored, a really kind of blasé, effortless cool.

From the runways of London Fashion Week we’ve selected six designers who we think best represent the diversity of London’s scene.
Spon Diogo’s design approach is centred on a constructional, minimal and graphic modus, strongly founded in their love for materials and tailoring.
