Out and about...Graduate Fashion Week part 3

From Fashionistable
Matt Bosbridge has just graduated in promotions. He was going to an interview about promoting his own designs which, is why he told me, he was suited and booted. He has obviously decided to used his newly gained degree wisely. For his interview he has chosen to wear an ASOS suit, Ben Sherman shirt, vintage DM's and briefcase. His surprise for us is that he loves chick flicks.

Raj Soond has just graduated in fashion design and is going to work as a freelance stylist and designer. When I asked what his surprise was he said he dresses for a big city but lives in a small town. He is wearing Vivienne Westwood glasses, shirt and shoes, Dior jacket and Topman trousers.

Miles Dumphy has just graduated from Birmingham specialising in menswear design. He was very excited about showing his work and was looking out for one of his models while I was shooting. Next up he is hoping for a place at the RCA to do an MA. His surprise for us was that he loves music and loves to smile. Miles is wearing a Nike jacket, Kooples shirt, NBA basketball shirt, his own design trousers, Okiai shoes and is carrying a Jan Sport bag.

Mr Porter - Luke like Miles is a menswear designer who would also like to go on to do an MA. I wish them both success. He is wearing a suit he bought in a charity shop on Berwick Street. He cut off the trousers and added the shiny detail on the collar.. His T is from H&M and shoes are Topman. Now, I wouldn't ordinarily say OK to white socks on a guy (unless he was playing sport) but I think I have found an exception with this look.

Out and about....modern tribal

Surprisingly I have met quite a lot of stylists recently on my travels. I am thinking they are living up to their name and Nasrin is no exception in this story. She has great personal style and her work is wonderful too - you can see it here. I was very lucky to catch her as I had spotted her across the street but when I went to catch up with her she disappeared. Luckily I was still in the area (I had popped into a shop to buy a sandwich) when she came wondering back. She told me that her style influences are based on memories are emotional and eclectic. It is a mix of all sorts of things from the four corners of the earth. She is a Londoner and her favourite place in the city is Portobello Rd. She couldn't think of anything surprising to tell me about herself so I asked what the last movie she had watched was, she told me she had just rewatched The Notebook and loved it all over again. Her look today is made up of a headscarf from Kooples, dress from H&M, Topshop shoes, vintage bag, necklace from NYC and harness by Hannah Marshall.
