.LFW backstage views article.

I found this great article in the guardian by street style blogger Russ Mcclintock, with a backstage look at some areas of London Fashion Week from a street style perspective; including shows JW Anderson, Roksanda Illincic and, where I interned, Fashion Scout.

Whilst working backstage at Fashion Scout I noticed a lot of bloggers, media, and press and was always interested to know what angle and view the bloggers were going to take when writing about the shows. So, finding an article written by someone that was backstage at the same shows as me was interesting to read. Although a short article, the pictures explain a lot and make the link to street style. 

One of the shows Mcclintock mentioned was the Ones to Watch, this was probably one of the most interesting shows because it had three emerging and very different designers. In the article Russ mainly captured the designs by Helen Lawrence due to the street style link. I was a dresser for this show and loved the designs and atmosphere backstage. 

A show Mcclintock highly praised was the Pam Hogg show, stating 'This was a real fashion show'. I was also a member of the audience for this show and loved the eccentric, colourful and bold designs.
