Paul Costelloe's day-break show was the perfect way to kick off London Fashion Week. Models descended the runway wearing Stepford wives-esque peplum dresses, complimented by wispy hair. Denim and metallic biker jackets injected a rock'n'roll touch into girly maxi dress ensembles. Costelloe's 'English' trademark was ever present in an array of sharp suits, trenches, school-boy blazers and pop socks.

The stand out pieces from a collection which drew inspiration from Asia, were dresses with cascading tails and geisha inspired headdresses. The construction of Isham's pieces were impeccable; adornment, embellishment, meticulously planned and executed fine details, which included full crystal encrusted bodices.
