Overtly conceptual and not always entirely wearable, Jeremy Scott’s creations never fail to excite the imagination, and this season was certainly no exception. The avant-garde designer who began designing in 1997, has clients ranging from Kanye West, Bjork, Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga nonetheless.

JEREMY SCOTT | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
MINIMARKET | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Having started as a boutique before becoming a label in 2006, Minimarket have made a name for themselves worldwide, picking up a number of awards on the way. The small Swedish label who describe themselves as “short, a bit curly haired and usually easy-going women who believe everything is possible” has truly brought autumn to the catwalk this season.
ALEXIS MABILLE | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Alexis Mabille is best known for his use of the bow tie, and this season he did not disappoint with his ubiquitous bow print present on almost every piece in the collection.
RUE DU MAIL | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Parisian label, Rue Du Mail, prides itself on creating pieces with a certain type of carefree elegance with femininity being of upmost importance.
AKRIS | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Designer Albert Kriemler’s inspirations always lie within construction, this season focussing on artist Franz Kline’s painting No.7.
SOPHIA KOKOSALAKI | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Best known for her cocktail dresses, Sophia Kokosalaki created a much fresher and more approachable take on daywear.
The designer, who states that her designs are always a mix of Greece and London, opted to focus on her roots, with a collection reflective her heritage.
ROLAND MOURET | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
1947 and its overhauling change to costume was referenced throughout Roland Mouret’s Autumn / Winter 12 collection.
The designer has revolutionised, and some what modernised this period of dress but kept the hyper-feminine and sleek cuts.
VLADIMIR KARALEEV | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
The Bulgarian designer is renowned for his unconventional take on fashion and approach to design. Regimental cuts gave for a Victorian finish, with high necks and low hems in a palette of black and charcoal.
ALEXANDER MCQUEEN | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Sarah Burton showcased a collection gloriously doused with a sense of futurism fused with classicism.
JASON WU | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Taipei born Jason Wu’s Autumn / Winter 2012 collection concentrates on fierce feminine inspired tailoring with padded shoulders, cinched waists and dark neutral palettes. The dramatic surroundings provided the perfect contrast for his simple yet beautifully structured hourglass silhouettes.
GIAMBATTISTA VALLI | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Giambattista Valli is renowned for showcasing haute couture pieces under the pretence of ready-to-wear. This collection was stripped back, even (dare we say it), simple.
KANYE WEST | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Kanye West debuted his second collection at La Halle Freyssinet in Paris. A total of 20 looks rich in fur, leather and sheer panelling created a collection which received a much warmer welcome from the fashion elite.
MAIYET | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Maiyet turned his back on the Bohemian influences of Spring / Summer 2012 and opted for a much darker and sharper selection of pieces.
HAIDER ACKERMANN | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Haider Ackermann is back with a much more romanticized collection; a collection inspired by the female, for the female.
FELIPE OLIVEIRA BAPTISTA | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Felipe Oliveira Baptista is renowned for his outwear and is the ultimate selling point to past collections, so this season was a lot to live up to.
MANISH ARORA | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Manish Arora created an OTT collection based on street-style. Believe it or not, this collection has actually had a new injection of reality and is nowhere near as inventive as previous collections.
SHARON WAUCHOB | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
Best known for her flapper-esque creations, Sharon Wauchob created a collection that enriched and stayed true to the brand.
CARVEN | AUTUMN / WINTER 2012
The show opened with smart, paisley printed skirt suits with bell-shaped skirts and tightly fitted bodices boasting large keyhole slits to the waist. The renaissance prints also featured on panelled overcoats with extensive detailing on the shoulders, layered over taffeta puffball skirts.
