A virtual fashion experience
One of the positive things to come out of this enforced worldwide lockdown has been the rise and rise of the virtual experience. Whether it’s Friday night Zoom drinks with friends or watching the world’s best DJs play live from their front room, courtesy of ‘virtual festivals’ from the likes of Defected Records, it’s been brilliant to see how the world has adapted to change. Fashion, too, has pivoted to our new way of living. The traditional retail experience might be on hold, but some brands have moved quickly to ensure that their customers can still enjoy some of the best aspects of shopping. Cabi is one fashion…

White heat
Like so many of us, I spend a lot of time thinking about what I’ll wear when we’re out of lockdown. By then, I’m hoping we’ll be fully into the summer season.

I’m now an ambassador for Cabi’s spring 2020 collection
I love this time of year in London. The weather may be challenging but the city is filled with some of the most stylish people you’ll ever see – and there are brilliant parties happening left, right and centre, all driven by London Fashion Week. I spent a few days checking out the shows and discovering some of the autumn/winter trends in store for us, from late 70s/early 80s throwback fashion to the resurgence of houndstooth – and the return of the cape (which were everywhere). More immediately important though, is what’s coming up for spring 2020. And I’m hugely excited to reveal that I’m working with the wonderful Cabi…
