Arts London News is back on the beat, with five of the best looks we found at the London College of Fashion this week.

Course: BA Fashion Management

What are you wearing: +J Uniqlo sweater and jeans/ Giordano Concepts shirt / father's boots

Favourite Shops: All Saints / Zara / Uniqlo

Kelly opts for a minimalist understated look. Combining a simple black sweater from the long-awaited Jil Sander for Uniqlo collection with her dad’s brown chunky boots, her outfit is casual yet edgy.

Pablo

Nationality: Spanish

Age: 28

Course: Footwear

What are you wearing: Aprill 77 jeans / Zara jacket / Vintage shoes / Prada bag

Favourite shops: Prada / Topman / Vintage shops

Style Icon: Jean Paul Gaultier

Pablo is wearing jeans from the French denim label April 77. Good choice of colour, yellow is always on trend. Overall, the combination of skinny jeans, vintage shoes and black oversized jacket works pretty well.

 

 

 

 

Girl wearing blue, black and green comber jacket with black jeans and trainers

Tiana

Nationality: British

Age: 23

Course: BA Sportswear

Style Icon: Jeremy Scott, Comme Des Garcons

Tiana’s understated yet very cool sportswear style grabbed our attention instantly. Turquoise and indigo panels on her classic bomber jacket bring just enough splash of colour to her outfit and match her bright blue watch perfectly. Her quirky hairstyle perfected the look.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Girl wearing black leather jacket, red scarf and bag with a white shirt and black skirt

Greta Baker

Age: 21

Course: Fashion Porfolio

Favourite shops: Rokit / Topshop / Charity shops

Greta’s look is vintage with a rock chick attitude. Her black leather jacket, a key item in any fashionista’s wardrobe, works well with flat biker boots and brown messenger bag. The contrasting cherry-printed blouse, wide cobalt-blue belt and airline-stewardessque scarf make her outfit girly yet quirky.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Girl wearing black coat, black and white dress with a red ribbon and a black headband

Amelia Mullins

Age: 24

Course: BA Print Design

Favourite shops: Always vintage, East End Thrift Store

We spotted Amelia, Print Design student, at London College of Fashion and immediatley loved her outfit. Her clothes have been picked with precision, each denoting her inspiration from the 40’s. The simple cut of her dress creates a perfect background for a vivid scarlet ribbon. Tied around a white Chelsea collar, it breaks up her otherwise monotone outfit. From head toe, Amelia is a picture pefect vintage muse.
