The venues were breathtaking, the celeb count impressive and obviously the frocks rocked — but for us it was the music that hit just the right note.
‘You Don’t Own Me’, by Dusty Springfield
(No we don’t, but we’re hoping to own a Burberry Prorsum duffel coat some time soon.)
‘Young Hearts Run Free’, by Candi Station
(Do it in a jewel-tone silk jersey gown by Issa — Kate Middleton’s favourite designer — and you might attract a prince.)
‘My Baby Just Cares for Me’, by Nina Simone
(We care more about 1970s denim, wide-leg trousers and pearl-embellished jumpers at House of Holland.)
‘Get Some’, by Lykke Li
(Fur, leather, chunky knits: get some of this Russian-inspired collection by Matthew Williamson.)
‘Animal’, by Miike Snow
(You’ll need one to team with the outdoorsy Mulberry collection inspired by hunting, shooting and fishing.)
‘Pop Corn’, by Hot Butter
(Snacks would have been great while watching the Acne show.)
‘Hound Dog’, by Elvis Presley
(Dalmatian spots, dog-printed knits and a poodle hairstyle: no puppies were hurt in the making of the Topshop Unique show.)
‘Free Money’, by Patti Smith
(If money were no object we’d buy Paul Smith’s whole menswear-inspired collection.)
‘Miss You’, by The Rolling Stones
(Miss the old stuff? Pringle revisits its heritage with Fair Isle, cable knits and twinsets.)
