Project Runway‘s guest judge this week is Matthew Williamson, which makes us very happy. We’re hoping that means the challenge will either involve Ibiza or rainbows. What’s more, we really liked some of the dresses fashioned from a burlap sack last Thursday, which makes us hope for more great design in the coming weeks. But Read more →
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s starring in Matthew Williamson’s Pre-Fall ’10 lookbook. The Victoria’s Secret angel looks appropriately bohemian, if not a bit stretched out. It’s rare to see such a recognizable model in a lookbook, especially for a label without an advertising budget. Unless of course Williamson has the budget and just doesn’t use it, depending instead Read more →
Fashion Month suffered from serious shake ups last season. For Spring 2010 Burberry went from Milan to London, Giles went from London to Paris, Pringle of Scotland took the same route as Burberry, Matthew Williamson, who’s always been kind of confused, was back in London after stints in New York and everyone involved in any Read more →

After a manic LFW, one would expect everything to calm down for a moment, for Read more →

You know a show’s bad when you can’t wait for it to be over, especially when it’s only seven minutes long. Unfortunately, that’s the way Matthew Williamson went yesterday.

We’ve always had a bit of a blog crush on ShowStudio and now they’ve really gone and done it. Nick Knight moved the site’s headquaters to London’s Bruton Place – parallel to the dream street that houses Stella McCartney and Matthew Williamson’s – and thought they’d get in on the retail action. Today marks the Read more →
