LONDON CALLING IN DUBAI

 London Calling, Marks & Spencer theme for this Autumn/Winter '14 Fashion Show held at Waldorf Astoria, The Palm Jumeirah, Dubai last 17th of September, attended by the most influential socialites in town, finest bloggers and media. The beauty and contemporary sophistication of one of the World's celebrated cities, London was recreated in a glamorous runway setting to present the luxurious simplicity and modern minimalism of the new collection. 

The Autumn Winter Menswear collection is based on classic, masculine elegance with a focus on bold tailoring, fine fabrics, contrasting textures and iconic pieces. Across the sub brands, menswear staples have been updated with key trend references, from the Autograph leather bomber jacket, the M&S Collection spot shirt and the North Coast khaki jacket to M&S Collection Luxury blue velvet evening wear.


 The new season sees an increasing overlap of formalwear and casual wear  with traditional tailored shapes taking on a new form through the use of casual fabrics, specifically on styles such as the M&S Collection jersey blazer.  Casual wear smartens up with Autograph geometric printed shirts, teamed with printed ties, bright coloured knits and double breasted coats.   Blue Harbour focuses on the British heritage sports trends, with block colour and bold stripes key to casual layering.  Footwear and accessories play on iconic shapes with softly structured holdalls and classic shoppers key additions to winter getaways, whilst trend-led pieces such as buckled monk strap shoes and coloured woven belts add interest to new season outfits.

 Thinking of a stylish travel? this brown leather duffel bag will take you everywhere you go in style at its finest. 
 Ending the magnificent show with this killer suits that will make all the Ladies stares...
