-
Milan Fashion Week: Fendi
We’ve seen plenty of fur this season, some pieces more successful than others, and when Karl Lagerfeld sent his punk army down the Fendi catwalk he went straight into the winning side.
-
Milan Fashion Week: Giorgio Armani
Mr Armani took centre stage at last week’s Oscars, decking out three of the Best Actress nominees in stunning evening gowns.
-
Milan Fashion Week: Dolce & Gabbana
After three fashion weeks in three cities, you could have forgiven a tired critic for losing track of their location.
-
Milan Fashion Week: Versace
What do you get when you mix a dash of punk, a sprinkling of studs, more fetishy vinyl than you can shake a leather whip at and the OTT sexiness of Versace?
-
Milan Fashion Week: Marni
The Marni show set highlighted what to expect from the collection, with a stark background of barren trees creating an imposing, sombre presence.
-
Milan Fashion Week: Gucci
The colour pops of spring were banished by something altogether darker at Gucci, with a vampy and powerful sexiness for women who mean business.
-
Milan Fashion Week: Bottega Veneta
As you’d expect from one of Milan’s least flashy labels, Tomas Maier’s latest Bottega Veneta collection was an exercise in class and precision.
-

If the internet wags are to be believed, this, Hedi Slimane’s second women’s ready-to-wear line for Saint Laurent, was a Zara-in-very-expensive-sheep’s-clothing.
-
Paris Fashion Week: Stella McCartney
Girl-meets-boy-meets-girl dressing has been cropping up at many shows this season, but Stella might just be the king, or queen, of it.

-
London Fashion Week: Mary Katrantzou
What to do when your rise to prominence in the fickle world of fashion is inseparable from bold colour and precision prints?

London Fashion Week: Jonathan Saunders
There was a retro drama to Saunders’ offering, all glamorous 1950s silhouettes celebrating the buxom female form, but given a kinky twist with belted waists and sex shop bustiers.
-
London Fashion Week: House of Holland
Henry’s House of Holland is always fun and tongue-in-cheek bad taste, and this season was no different.

-
London Fashion Week: JW Anderson
After creating probably the most Marmite show of London Collections: Men, JW Anderson’s autumn 13 womenswear was equally challenging.
-
London Fashion Week: Christopher Kane
The appeal of a Kane collection lies in part with its skill in juxtaposing attitude and artfulness, the pretty and the peculiar.
-
London Fashion Week: Roksanda Ilincic
Having seen so much pretty pinkness this season, it felt like Ilincic had already moved ahead by giving the girly colour a moodier edge.
-
London Fashion Week: Meadham Kirchhoff
Take almost everything you’ve come to expect from Edward Meadham and Ben Kirchhoff and forget it, almost.
-
London Fashion Week: Burberry Prorsum
Just as we wondered how much more could be done with the trench coat, Christopher Bailey proved us wrong, sending out models clad in translucent latex trenches, knickers clearly visible underneath.
-
London Fashion Week: Topshop Unique
Topshop linked up with Google+ for its latest show but you didn’t need to use the search engine to discover why this was the strongest Unique collection in a while.
-
London Fashion Week: Richard Nicoll
It’s when a designer is really in tune with their signature while knowing how to step out of their comfort zone that a lot of the best work is done, and no one is more hard-wired into this than Nicoll.
-
London Fashion Week: Best of the rest
Underneath Sister by Sibling’s showstopper monster scarves and oversized berets came some great knitwear- a chic lady in twin sets, Fair Isles and sequined florals with a punky twist.

-
New York Fashion Week: Lacoste
Reconsidering and recontextualising sportswear has always been part of Lacoste’s DNA, so it was no surprise to see Felipe Oliveira Baptista riff on its tennis heritage.
-
New York Fashion Week: Alexander Wang
Alexander Wang must be hoping for a seriously cold spell for autumn, if his models mummified in wool were anything to go on.
-
New York Fashion Week: Proenza Schouler
There’s an instant excitement when a collection emerges so far removed from what designers have shown before, and Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez have certainly left the pulsating energy of their spring 13 love affair with print behind.
-
New York Fashion Week: Ralph Lauren
Yes, fashion is constantly referring to the past to create something new, but at what point does ‘inspired by’ become ‘costumey’?
-
New York Fashion Week: Victoria Beckham

New York Fashion Week: Tommy Hilfiger
Suitably preppy, with a healthy dollop of British 1960s influence, characterises the men’s and women’s collections by Tommy Hilfiger this season.

Sander took her clean lines and fuss-free detailing beyond the limits of strict minimalism with a collection that retained a simplicity while avoiding being plain.
-
Milan Menswear AW13: Dolce & Gabbana
While not exactly an act of God, this collection had more than a touch of the religious about it, as iconography, tapestries and even a church print made it onto the catwalk.
-
Milan Menswear AW13: Versace
Pushed-up sleeves, pumped-up shoulders and punchy fabrication characterised Donatella’s collection.
