DESIGNER: Vivienne Westwood

INSPIRATION: London life enters an Alice in Wonderland backward world.

TOP LOOKS: Tartan skirts worn with striped shirts and boyfriend cardigans, pinstripe suits, kilt style skirts, tailored shorts teamed with a leopard print coat, patchwork jackets, crooked ties, and a multi-coloured feather cape.

ACCESSORIES: Satchels, headscarves, wonky trilbies, tweed flat caps and crown shaped hats.

WHO WAS THERE: Matt Smith, Jo Wood, Nicola Roberts, Sarah Harding, VV Brown, Paloma Faith, Tracey Emin, Boy George, Jaime Winstone, Boris Becker.

WHAT WE THOUGHT: Vivienne Westwood fans will not be disappointed with this collection; the hair and makeup alone was enough of a spectacle. Models made their way down the catwalk with smudged makeup in paintbox shades and crowns braided into their hair but this fairytale look didn't detract from the array of fabulously quirky designs. The disheveled regal look showed Westwood at her best.
