London Fashion Week Spring 2012 Beauty Roundup: The Best and the Brightest

London fashion week was a whirlwind of shows, and we had a great time covering them. Besides being an incubator for original fashion, London designers are also not afraid to work a LOOK on their models, making for the best beauty-ogling of all the fashion weeks. From Vivienne Westwood (at left), who is not afraid of, well, anything, to more subtle yet never boring looks, we loved the beauty in London.

This is all about the drama. You need a certain amount of self-confidence to pull many of these off, but we encourage you to try!

Julien Macdonald Spring 2012: Japan-esque and Ready to Rumble

Having spent Friday, the first day of London fashion week, in a jet-lagged daze wandering in and out of high street stores on Oxford Street while waiting for my hotel room to be ready, I missed all the smaller shows that day. Julien Macdonald, on a sunny Saturday morning, was my introduction to London’s fashion scene, and it was a great way to start. (And not only because they were handing out Krispy Kremes outside the venue.)

Imagine Robert Palmer’s “Addicted to Love” girls wearing black and white origami-cut dresses and dragon prints, and you have the Julien Macdonald show (well, the first half at least.) Featuring slicked, painted hair (Spring beauty trend alert! We saw it in New York, too) and red lips, his girls were ready to kick ass and take names.
