LFW Coverage :: The UNTOLD Alternative

Lumped together, Autumn/Winter 2010 is readily told by the cast of London Fashion Week: who to wear, what to wear, and how to wear it - but who’s doing the telling?

The designer exhibitions are where to find some of the most interesting, innovative and stylish creations looking to express an idea and be available in a shop near you.

To see the Autumn/Winter 2010 collection from Jena.Theo come down the runway at London Fashion Week, it is difficult to believe that just half a year ago the duo behind the line, Jenny Holmes and Dimitris Theocharidis, were participating in their very first catwalk show as part of Fashion Fringe at Covent Garden.

So This Is Worldtown drops by London Fashion Week (LFW)– taking place Feb 19 to Feb 24– sneaking in to a couple of runways shows at LFW’s home at Somerset House, as well as reporting from a range of other events in the city focusing on fresh, diverse and up-and-coming designers to watch.

For this endeavour, we keep in mind the Oscar Wilde quote: “It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.” Fitting?
