London Fashion Week has begun! And the Grazia team has already hit Somerset House because we're oh-so-excited - as is Boris Johnson who had this to say: 'London Fashion Week is a dazzling showcase of great British talent. Its significance has been growing over the last few years, with strong attendance by press and buyers from around the world. With Natalie Massenet now at the helm, her eye for fashion and innovative ideas about selling will ensure it goes from strength to strength and inspire future generations to seek out jobs in this vibrant and creative sector.

As well as investing in  New York Fashion Week, I will continue to do all I can to support the industry, which is so important to our city's prosperity.' Well said, Boris! So what are we most excited to see at the 56 catwalk shows and 20 presentations that are taking place over the next 5 days?

Visions of black and white floated down the forested runway at the Chanel Haute Couture show in Paris. I love that Karl Lagerfeld always weaves in a feeling of melancholia in all of his collections, even with sequins and tulle and floral prints, there's a sense of beautiful sadness in every piece. Maybe it's just the models' facial expressions half covered by webby lace and feathers, though. The excruciating and strenuous hand-sewn sparkle that covered most of the looks reflected Spring in the best possible way, shining and subtle at the same time.  My admiration of the theatricals brought by every Chanel show is reinforced again, as well as my devotion for sexy-demureness (hello, shoulders), and the fact that there were two brides at the finale just topped the proverbial wedding cake for me. And I think I found my future reception dress on Lindsey Wixon.

behold, my dream closet:

I know I should have made a separate post for each separate day, but let's be real, fashion week coverage and photos always start looking like the exact same thing. Monday to Wednesday was a blur of backstage interviews and passes, editors and bloggers alike sitting front row - except Anna Wintour was just the ultimate - and collection after collection I kept having to pinch myself and blink really hard just to make sure all of this is actually real life. This week actually happened to me.

Designer Lineup: Tracy Reese, 3.1 Philli Lim, Karen Walker, Alice + Olivia, Rodarte, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Nanette Lepore, Milly, Anna Sui, and Clover Canyon
