Plot

The Man from London concerns a middle-aged railway pointsman, Maloin (Miroslav Krobot), who lives in a decrepit apartment in a port town with his highly-strung wife Camlia (Tilda Swinton) and his daughter Henriette (Erika Bk). One night while in his viewing tower at the port’s rail terminus, Maloin witnesses a fight on the dockside. One of the shady combatants is knocked into the water along with the briefcase he carries; when the other flees the dark quayside, Maloin makes a clandestine descent from the tower and retrieves the briefcase, which he finds full of sodden English banknotes. Maloin conceals the money and tells no-one of what he has seen. The next morning, he visits a tavern where he plays chess with the barkeep (Gyula Pauer). On his way home, he stops by the butcher’s where his daughter works, and finds to his indignance that they have her washing the floor. Later, from the window of his apartment, he notices Brown (Jnos Derzsi) watching him from below. At dinner, Maloin is increasingly irascible, addressing Henriette brusquely and arguing with Camlia. Meanwhile Brown searches the water at the dock’s edge without success before noticing the watchtower overlooking the quayside, and Maloin within.

Later at the tavern, a police inspector from London named Morrison (Istvn Lnrt) discusses with Brown the matter of the stolen money. Morrison claims to be working on behalf of a theatre owner named Mitchell, a theatre owner from whose office safe the 55,000 was stolen. Morrison proposes that Brown, being intimately familiar with Mitchell’s office, is the only man he knows that was capable of making away with the money without raising alarm. Morrison indicates that Mitchell cares only that the money is returned swiftly, and is even prepared to offer a two night’s theatre takings in exchange. When Morrison mentions having visited Brown’s wife and asks what he should tell Mitchell, Brown leaves the room under a pretense and slips out a side door. Nearby playing chess with the barkeep, Maloin has overheard the conversation.

Maloin calls to the butcher’s and drags Henriette from the store against her will and over the protestations of the butcher’s wife (Kati Lzr). He brings her to the tavern for a drink, where he overhears the barkeep telling another patron the story of Brown’s meeting with the inspector, revealing that Morrison had called the local police when Brown absconded. Though Henriette refuses her drink, Maloin buys her an expensive mink stole. They return home to the consternation of Camlia, who cannot comprehend why Maloin has ruined Henriette’s chances of a job and spent what little savings the family had on the extravagant stole. During Maloin’s shift the next night he is visited by Morrison, who questions him as to the previous night’s events as the body of the drowned man is retrieved from the quayside below.

The next day at the tavern, Morrison meets Brown’s wife (Agi Szirtes), and tells her that Brown is under suspicion for the theft and for the murder at the quayside. He asks for her help in finding him and repeats to her Mitchell’s offer to Brown, but she remains silent. At home, Henriette tells Maloin she found a man in their hut at the seaside, and in fear locked the door and ran home. An agitated Maloin tells her not to tell anyone, and leaves for the hut. He unlocks the door, and receiving no response to his calling Brown’s name, steps inside, closing the door behind. Minutes later he re-emerges, breathing heavily. After pausing to compose himself, he locks the door and leaves. In the next scene, Maloin presents the briefcase to Morrison in the tavern, and asks him to arrest him, confessing to having killed Brown an hour ago. Morrison leaves with Maloin for the hut, dismissing the frenzied inquiries of Brown’s wife about her husband and handing the briefcase to the barkeep on the way out. Brown’s wife follows the men to the hut, and emerges weeping with Brown moments later. Back at the tavern, Morrison prepares two envelopes with a small portion of the recovered money in each. One he leaves with the grieving widow to whom he apologises and wishes well, while the other he gives to Maloin, telling him that his case was one of self-defence. As he is preparing to leave, Morrison advises Maloin to go home and forget the whole affair. The camera focuses on the expressionless face of Brown’s wife momentarily before fading to white.

Production history

Background, initial attempt and obstacles

Director Bla Tarr and novelist-screenwriter Lszl Krasznahorkai had been collaborators since making the acclaimed epic Stntang in 1985. With The Man from London, they sought to adapt the 1934 French language novel L’Homme de Londres by the Belgian writer Georges Simenon. The ensemble cast of the film included Czech actor Miroslav Krobot, Briton Tilda Swinton, and Hungarian actors Jnos Derzsi and Istvn Lnrt. Tarr shared directorial credit with gnes Hranitzky the film’s editor and his long-time collaborator.

The development of the film was problematic, with threats to shut down the production, lack of financing, and ultimately a return to work. The project first faltered in February 2005, when the film’s producer Humbert Balsan committed suicide. Tarr reported receiving word of his producer’s death two days before shooting was scheduled to begin in Bastia, Corsica. Balsan’s death led to significant financial difficulties for the production. The film had been established as a co-production with French, German and Hungarian financing. Tarr’s Budapest-based production company T. T. Filmmhely were to provide the Hungarian funding for the project, while Balsan had secured the French and German financing for the film by warranting a loan from the French bank Coficin. Upon learning of his death, the bank withdrew its support for the production, which was then postponed.

After securing additional financing from Eurimages and ARTE, Tarr used these and the Hungarian funds to undertake nine days of shooting on sets he had built at a cost of 2 million. The French funding was cross-financed for the shoot by T. T. Filmmhely. As funds were frozen however, the Corsican subcontractor Tanit Films (controlled by the film’s then-executive producer Jean-Patrick Costantini), terminated their contract with Balsan and through legal action compelled the production to dismantle the sets and leave the shooting location. At that point, Ognon Pictures shut the production down and disassociated themselves from the film, and Tarr withdrew to Hungary to regroup.

Revisions and continued difficulties

So this is where we are at this moment. The agreement with Ognon and Coficin has been concluded, the signed contract has been submitted to the court in Paris and we shall soon start shooting the film which is now relieved from the burden of the past.

We sincerely hope that the descent to hell and the humiliation is over, finally we can switch off the light in the projection hall, and we can see what it was all about after all.

Because what is made ready from this shooting of half an hour or so is something that makes all of us burst with pride!

Press release by director Bla Tarr and producer Gbor Tni, February 6, 2006.

Expressions of sympathy and solidarity from the European film community manifested in renewed assurances of continued support from the production’s German partners, ARTE, and the French National Film Centre (whose support was conditional on the film having 51% of its dialogue in French). New French financing was secured from production company Mezzanine Film, and in Hungary, the Hungarian Motion Picture Foundation (MMKA) and the Minister of Culture pledged to back the production if a guarantee could be made that the film would be finished safely. A compromise filming schedule was negotiated whereby a quarter of the shoot would take place in Eastern Europe rather than Corsica and fewer shooting days would be allotted. This allowed the original 5 million budget to be reduced by 700,000 to the amount available. With the funding promises secured and a revised shooting schedule, the film’s producers forged a new co-production contract in July 2005.

While the production’s lawyers worked to clarify its legal standing in the Summer of 2005, it emerged that Humbert Balsan’s deeply indebted production company Ognon Pictures had pledged all rights to the production to Coficin in exchange for loans. With production in legal stasis and faced with a lengthy court battle to recover the rights, the producers agreed to a settlement with Ognon’s bankruptcy officer. In the meantime, the French partners Mezzanine Film declared their uncomfortableness with the scale of the production, and after mutual agreement with the producers, left the project on September 5, 2005. After meeting with the producers and their new French partner, Paul Saadoun of 13 Production, Coficin consented to completing the film. On February 6, 2006, Tarr and producer Gbor Tni issued a press release which documented at length the developments with the troubled production to that date, and expressed their hope and intent to persevere in completing the film. Tarr duly restarted shooting in March 2006, after a year of inactivity.

Release

The Man from London premiered in competition at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival, Tarr’s first film to do so. Although its showing was highly anticipated, the slow pace and prolonged shots of the film “had the press fleeing like panicked slaughterhouse cattle” as The New York Times put it, and it won no prize. This failure was attributed by the film’s French distributor Shellac to its late showing and the poor quality of the dubbing. A proposal for the film to open the Hungarian Film Week out of competition had previously been rejected by the festival’s board. Following its Cannes appearance, the film was re-dubbed in French and English and screened at the film festivals of Toronto, Melbourne, Edinburgh, Vancouver and New York. It proved controversial in New York, where elements of the audience reacted favourably when the film appeared to end prematurely due to a technical fault; others greeted the actual conclusion with fervent applause and calls of bravo. Global sales rights to the film were bought by Fortissimo Films. In the United Kingdom, distributor Artificial Eye released the film theatrically in December 2008, 18 months following its Cannes premiere. They later released a DVD box set of Tarr’s films which collected The Man from London with Damnation (1988) and Werckmeister Harmonies (2000). In the United States the film was given a limited release in May 2009 by IFC Films, who later made it available through video-on-demand.

Critical reception

Director Bla Tarr at the Sarajevo Film Festival showing of the film.

Critical reaction to The Man from London was to acknowledge its arresting formalist aesthetic, painstakingly composed scenes and glacial pace, and to lament the lack of an engaging plot or compelling characters. The critical consensus was that the film fell short of Tarr’s previous monumental efforts. Among Tarr’s mature films, Variety’s Derek Elley rated the film on a par with his Damnation (1988) but as inferior to the masterpieces Stntang (1994) and Werckmeister Harmonies (2000), and remarked that it was improbable that The Man From London would put an end to the polarization of Tarr’s audiences into those who hail him as a director of “visionary genius” and those for whom he is a “crashing bore”.

The New York Times reviewer Nathan Lee described The Man from London as “bloated, formalist art”, and an “outrageously stylized, conceptually demanding film” that dehumanizes and alienates its audience. In The Hollywood Reporter, Kirk Honeycutt complimented the intricacy of the cinematography and the monochrome photography, but judged the film to be “tedious”, “repetitive” and “nearly unwatchable”. In a review of Cannes’ offerings for Time Out, Dave Calhoun too drew attention to the meticulous cinematography and signature shot length’s of Tarr’s “austere and mesmeric” film, and declared Swinton’s dubbing into Hungarian one of the festival’s strangest instances of cultural displacement. Reporting from Cannes, The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw described the film as “bizarre and lugubrious, but mesmeric”, and praised the muted performance of Agi Szirtes in the role of Brown’s wife as “strangely compelling”. Reviewing the film following its theatrical release, he found the dubbed dialogue affected and odd, the score doom-laden, the occasional humour mordant, and the cinematography mesmerising, remarking that net effect was “unsettling, sometimes absurd, sometimes stunning”. Ed Gonzales of The Village Voice concluded that the film “stands as an example of style for the sake of pure and intense but dispassionate style”.

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011

Winter is nearly upon us so our thoughts turn to spring/summer as LFW SS11 begins. Even the weather warmed to the event as it went from crisp chilly days to end with blazing hot sunshine.

Early on Day one and opening the show at the BFC marquee catwalk was Paul Costelloe. Still sleepy, frantic shouting backstage put a smile on our bleary eyed faces.

PAUL COSTELLOE

Titled ‘A Long Day’s Night’, the collection is girly and described as ‘Tinkerbell turned party girl’. Cropped biker jackets are thrown in to give a harder edge but are softened with the use of lighter colours and soft sheen fabrics.

Skirt lengths go to the extremes – either short or maxis. The short skirts are fun and flirty whilst the maxis are elegant and ethereal – one a sensual diaphanous fabric with modesty only prevailing through the pale pink and blue zigzag wave pattern.

Colours are sugar pink, mint green, silver, pearl, greys and navy. The pinks formed abstract checks with navy and white, lightly spice up graphic patterns with pale apricot, zigzagged with pale blue in waves and graduated alone from light to a bolder hue. The mint green was refreshing in a shiny jacquard fabric.

Textures come in metallic weaves and twill, patterns in abstract checks and graphics. Large bows don the back of low backlines.

The short skirts swirled in skater style, cocooned legs in tulip and puff ball shapes and looked art deco in a dropped waist pleated style. The more interesting were the silver embossed puff ball dress tied at the bottom to form the shape of a large bow and the jacquard mint green dress looking futuristic with its stiff 3 tiered skirt.

To keep the smile on our faces, we were treated to Costelloe’s six sons strutting down the catwalk (albeit nervously) suited and booted.

BUNMI KOKO

Kicking off the Vauxhall Fashion Scout at Freemasons Hall Covent Garden was Bunmi Koko. To celebrate the start of the show a lone Ekpe man danced in a bright red and yellow masquerade costume looking very much like a large pom pom. It was hard to visualise the collection usurping this, but amazingly it did.

Hear we saw no pretty summer pastels or girlie styles. Colours were bold monochrome, bright reds and burnt ochre. Prints are Ekpe, leopard and tie dye designed to create fiery flames. The style epitomises the confident feminine woman who knows what she wants and aims to get it. Titled ‘Matriarchy’ the collection celebrates female empowerment whilst fusing cultures of Nigeria and the UK. This is power dressing with a wild twist – sharp tailoring, enhanced waists, and strong shoulders embellished with pom poms, beads and fringing. An eclectic mixture of fabrics and patterns are used together such as tweeds, organza and silk – all accessorised with ornate feathered masks.

CAROLINE CHARLES

There was a mixed reaction to this sleek ladylike lux inspired collection as you instantly thought ‘mother of the bride’ due to the lengths of the skirts which are either on the knee or just below, plus the accessories of hats, long gloves and kitten heels .

For day wear there are sleeveless dresses in brightly coloured 50′s print floral silk, polka dots and animal prints. Suits have full or pencil skirts and boxy jackets in white, black and yellow. All cinched in with skinny leather belts of various colours. Black Capri pants and leggings give a more youthful feel worn with tunic shirts in a monochrome check and a leopard print. Although not sure on the skull caps which looked suspiciously like rubber swimming hats.

For the evening, dress shapes vary from the shift dress to the full volume skirt. Colours are of soft golds, pearls, reds and black. LBDs are accessorised with diamond and pearls. Lots of sequins and beads.

This collection probably wouldn’t appeal to the younger woman but then again it is right on track for Ascot, Goodwood and Henley’s where fashion rules are not to be broken if you want to get in.

JENA .THEO

The designer duo’s (Jenny Holmes and Dimitris Theocharidis) collection titled ‘Bandoliers’ is inspired by the spirit of India with a touch of 19th Century Victorian British colonialism.

Silk turbans adorned the models’ heads, handcrafted Indian trim embellished flowing fabrics and skinny pants whilst fabric versions of the bandoliers feature as low slung belts, cuffs, necklines and garters.

Denim creates contrasting structure in shorts, jackets and dresses. Colours are either block pastel hues of iris blue and dusty violet pink or raw ecru. The raw ecru splashed with hand painted colour was inspired by the Holi festival when coloured pigment and herbs are thrown in a joyful celebration.

Stiletto platform shoes were adorned with raw painted gold leaf, as was the model’s arms, ankles, stomachs and even one nipple.

The Victorian influence came in the disguise of a corseted iris blue mini dress with soft side bustle and a mini dress version of the cage crinoline.

Day 2 and another early morning start on a chilly day. This time at the Off schedule location of the edgier Old Sorting Office’s industrial hall in new Oxford Street

BERNARD CHANDRAN

Titled ‘A Modern Romance’ Chandran keeps pastel hues to a minimum preferring the richer tones of golds, greens, silver and black. His clean rectangular silhouettes are given texture through the use of a Malay technique called kerrawang, to create linear prints. Silk organza sleeveless tunic dresses show a military feel with oversized floating flap pockets and boxed sleeves, whilst the prints reflect the Malaysian rainforest.

Metallics bring fluidity and a sci-fi feel with liquid silver pieces and as multicoloured panels on dresses. Here we still see the floating pockets and the boxed sleeves become more exaggerated. New fabrics used are lurex silk and patent leather.

Evening wear in the guise of embellished structured lapels, one with an extremely low neckline which kept falling off the models shoulder, with the last outfit resembling the 1920′s with its long straight camel maxi and ostrich feathers capelet.

Unfortunately for one model the winged styled shoes with their high and extremely thin killer heels almost made her crash land.

CRAIG LAWRENCE

‘Siren Mermaids’ inspired by Sirens of Greek mythology and the fantasy world of mermaids. Using cutting edge materials such as Japanese Kyototex metallic yarns in his knitwear techniques, Lawrence enables the garments to glisten as if wet. Colours are peacock green, silver and white. Long tube maxi dresses cling to the models like mermaid tails with the two toned greens and silver creating the illusion of fish scales. The garments are also turned inside out to show web like textures and chain mail detailing which adds to the illusion. A white strapless tube maxi is adorned with loose long yarns like floating seaweed, whilst an empire line maxi is covered with feather-like yarns to represent sea foam. Very mystical.

LAKO BUKIA

Next stop was Freemason’s Hall to catch Lako Bukia’s show. Titled ‘Surati’, the collection has been dedicated to Georgian culture and religion, Bukia’s native country. Colour palette of soft blues, pinks, greys and natural tones were taken from the Georgian buildings although red, midnight blue and black were also included. And strong shoulders souring out and upwards representing the silhouettes.

Light fabrics of silk satin, crepe and cotton contrasted well with the angular structured shoulders. Whilst a top layer of organza, georgette and chiffon are used to create the illusion of looking outwards through the curtains of windows. Dress shapes keep the buildings rectangular silhouette by either falling straight from the neckline or with drop waists. Whilst rows of windows are represented through the placement of strips of fabric crossing over each other, and the cutaway necklines.

The models wore shoes designed by Bukia with what is becoming to be her signature heel – chunky and triangular.

OSMAN

Back in the big tent at Somerset House, Osman proved to be in demand with some unlucky ticket holders being turned away.

Staple colours are tans, beiges and navy with a refreshing splash of honeysuckle pink, zingy yellow, and apple green.

Woven and soft patent leathers come in creamy beige sculpted shorts, swing skirts, and bandeau tunics. Cotton blended ottomans appear as crisp summer white dresses; lightweight gossamer silks come to life in the vivid hues and the organic dark blue denim brings an edge to sculpted tailored dresses

Hemlines bring interest to the minimalist tailoring with asymmetry, softly folded tiers, extremely long tail coats and attached coloured drapes of longer length.

Evening and just time enough to squeeze in another catwalk show before the Phrophetik after show party. This time the location was the Charing Cross hotel and the show called ‘A la Mode’ was organised by La Genève North events. A LA MODE is a one stop destination to snap up and discover some of the best independent international designers.

OMAR MANSOOR‘s collection is named after Terence Rattigan’s ‘After the Dance’ – a play whose central characters have spent years in a round of endless hedonism in the 20s. Mansoor’s designs reflect the glamour of this era with embellishments of Swarovskis and thread work on draped chiffons and silks in silver grey, dusty pink, wine and midnight blue. The long gowns ooze elegance and sophistication, whilst the knee length floaty cocktail dresses have a flirtier look allowing you to dance the night away.

VALERY KOVALSKA’s collection ‘Professional Suicide’ includes both mens and womenswear and has a contemporary punk rock edge. Various shades of blues with a striking design of white lightening. Weave designs on shirts and waistcoats add texture and loving the men’s kilt style coat.

BELINDA LIU’s ‘Marquis de Sade’ collection takes its inspiration from the French aristocrat’s libertine lifestyle and the fashion of his era. Here we see the modern version of the full bloomers over mini puffed skirts, corset style bodices, matching cuff bracelets and romantic lace hooded capelets. More wearable pieces include the tailored knee length dresses with matching capelets.

ZED-EYE . An eclectic mix of patterns and textures. Feathers adorn shoulders and waists, ruffles necklines and peplums, and a mesh of pearl beads around the neck. Floral patterned pencil skirt is matched with a striped blouse. Not all pieces are busy, such as the elegant jumpsuits in bold block colours of pink and blue with a touch of patterned trim.

MALAM’s ‘Lost Dolls’ collection is cute with a little edge – an assortment of lace, cotton, linen and silk. Black lace dress is adorned with a 2 tone metallic pink cowl neck collar and fingerless gloves, and there’s a pantomime feel with principal boy style waist coats worn over girlie lace trimmed dresses and fairy wizard type pointed hoods.

KATE WILLIAMS’s otherwise colour palette of black and white sees touches of tans, aquas and yellows in digital prints. The collection is a capsule wardrobe ranging from the black and white striped bikinis for the beach, tufted tasselled high waist shorts, jacquard trousers, white full skirted day dress, and digital printed jersey dresses to the floor length pearl satin evening dress.

Day 3 and back to Somerset House

BASSO AND BROOKE

The designer duo’s, Bruno Basso & Christopher Brooke, collection is where’ bleeding edge techno-fusion meets dusty hand scribbled antiquity’.

Digital prints of handwritten notes by Da Vinci, Tolstoy, Balzac and others mix with vintage florals and topography. Prints of suede, tweed and leather add digital texture to the smoother silks, cotton and gabardine.

Prim and proper necklines juxtapose with short flirty skirt lengths – long sleeved shirts buttoned to the top were worn with short swing skater skirts and mini shift dresses wore their necklines high.

Black and white multi tonal graduating stripes look striking as peg leg pants and capes. The neutral colour palette of earthy tones and pale dusty pastels is giving a jolt with electric blues and bright oranges joining the prints either as panels or the main piece.

ANN-SOFIE BACK ATELJE

After rushing to get to the Portico Rooms we then could relax and enjoy the slower paced salon show of Ann-Sofie Back. The theme for the collection is porn and the sexualisation of society.

Not being at all seedy the colour palette is sophisticated black and white. The look is simplistic with added twists: One fascinating white dress has the appearance of being damp and clung to the model’s body. Detailing is seen as twisted plexi bras worn over simple tops, large silver rings framing cutaway circles on backs and tear drop jewellery weights securing the drape fabrics.

CHARLIE LE MINDU

It was a touch of the Emperor’s New Clothes – did the models realise they were naked bar pink platform boots, wig and a hat? Apparently the effect was to focus on the wig and the hat – not sure it worked. I think part of the audience either concentrated on the boots with down cast eyes and the rest didn’t look up as far as the models head.

Not all the models were naked; most were decently covered in leopard prints or yeti like fur.

See it didn’t work, I haven’t once commented on the wigs.

Day 4 and at last, time to look around the exhibition. Here are some highlights:

TAMARA FOGLE

Tamara Fogle makes bags out of antique textile such as German flour sacks, Hungarian grain sacks, military tents, sailcloth, Welsh blankets and French mattress ticking. The German flour sacks (date range 1830-1940′s) are trimmed in chocolate brown Italian leather. The writing which is different on every sack (and so makes each bag unique) states the farmer’s name.

This season new colours of oranges and teals give a contemporary twist.

LEJU JEWELLERY

Leju use a special Amazonian seed known as vegetable ivory as a sustainable alternative to elephant ivory. Rich colours are created by staining and dying the seed with natural plant extract and oils. Their new collection brings together intense colours and bold structure threaded together using leather, hemp, wax thread, stainless steel and copper wire. Great to adorn your plain LBDs.

FINSK

Titled ‘Adagio’ this new collection is inspired by ballet training and slow movement is represented by the shape of the shoe or fold of leather. Tones are muted in mint greens, greys and flesh pinks with brighter shades of yellow, lilac and black in small details capturing the dancer’s movement. Her wooden wedges are HIGH with an almost rocking chair construction.

LA PERLA

La Perla collaborates with Jean Paul Gautier and brings out his signature cone bra cups and corseted waists. Colours are orange red, black and nude.

PIERS ATKINSON

Atkinson’s hats are whacky as ever with this season the story floating between Adam & Eve, Sleeping Beauty and the Green Man. Main colour palette is green (obviously) ranging from apple to moss, creams, gold and pale pinks to fuchsias. Designs are berets in suede or leather, straw mini-fezzes and silk florals creations.

Back on the catwalk shows, this time at Vauxhall Fashion Scouts’ Freemason’s Hall

ROMEO PIRES

This mens and womenswear collection has a circus clown feel to it with long broad braces holding up very low slung baggy trousers and skirts with wide loose waist bands. Main colour palette is crisp white and stone with touches of black and splashes of terracotta. Layering is key and prints of large skull are bold and dramatic.

Day 5 and the sun is shining and I’m back at the big tent in Somerset House.

JAEGER

Inspiration for graphic simplicity and geometric lines is drawn from abstract artist Robyn Denny’s clean colour blocked panels and the fresh sporty undertone from post-minimalist sculpture Rachel Whiteread.

Monochrome blazers and waistcoats have displaced lapels in contrasting shade to form sculptural shapes, simple tunic leather dresses and skirts are perforated and hemlines curved. 60′s style dresses continue the geometric lines and monochrome look.

Softer lines and colours are brought in through nude and buttermilk suede and loosely woven macramé sweaters and maxi dress.

Vibrant colours also appear in abundance with marine blue, spearmint, emerald, gold, raspberry and navy. And photographic print of large peonies in raspberry and monochrome bring a light feminine touch on silk gazar and organza shift dresses, tunic tops and skirts

ANTIPODIUM

The weather was definitely getting in to the swing of LFW as the sun shone through the Portico Room windows for Antipodium’s ‘Hothouse ‘collection. This mens and womens wear collection is inspired by the Barbican hothouse and what could happen if revellers succumbed to their natural urges at a refined soiree.

Prints are oversized entwined limbs in greens and greys on shirts and shirt dresses, dense foliage in mulberry and green, plus moths on sky blue blouses and mini flared skirts and dresses.

Skirt length varies from the flirty mini to the elegant 40′s mid calf length of the waffle knitted body con dress and stretch denim pencil skirts.

Brown washed linen shorts with a frayed hem look tailored teamed with waffled knit jumper and sky blue moth blouse, and the soft nylon raincoat in chartreuse gives the illusion of wet grass whilst the diaphanous chartreuse dress underneath reflects hot humidity.

Other main colour is dusty pale pink in a skinny leg pant suit and floor length diaphanous dress.

KRYSTOF STROZYNA

Lots of lace as high waist wide legged pants, maxi skirts and short dresses, but also as panelling in body con short dresses and lace fitted leg warmers. Main colour palette is muted beige with accents of neon violet, mint green and fuchsia pink in chiffon drapes, panelling, animal and tropical flower prints.

Day 6, move over girls, it’s now the boys’ turn

CHRISTOPHER SHANNON

Titled ‘Never Get to Go Anywhere’ this refers to the wanderlust of trips Shannon is yet to take.

The colours of the collection are light with lots of crisp optic white, pale sand and powder colours of lemon, pink and blue. Camouflage prints are pale blues, greys, black and white. Coloured panels are the look for shirts, shorts, trousers whilst nylon anoraks don coloured pockets. Rag tufting and mesh give texture to tops, shorts and hats. Large light grey rucksacks add to the adventurous holiday theme. The overall look is clean and you can’t help wonder whether this collection is more suited to a luxury holiday in the Caribbean rather than trekking in Nepal or on a dusty African safari.

J.W. ANDERSON

Titled ‘the Devoured and I’, the collection looks at the intimacy and journey of 2 people as they experiment and get lost in self discovery and subsequently the fall out and consequences of this.

Layering is key with waistcoats, shirts over tees, and knits wrapped round the waist, but the silhouette is slim and not baggy. Colours range from the muted earthy tones to burnt oranges, blues, pinks and black.

Grandmas may have to lock up their doilies as hand crocheted ones make an appearance here giving texture to tee shirts and knits. Admittedly not all are the basic white as some are dip dyed with neon colours to represent hallucinations. Also adding texture and a bit of bling are Swarovski crystals embellishing tops and boots. Patterns galore on rolled up chinos and digital prints of William Gedney the photographer grace the backs of tops.

The show ended this journey with a Pulp soundtrack and a wide laser beam display above the catwalk resembling a dense clouded sky.

And it is also the end of my LFW journey, next stop London Fashion Weekend.

Book your holiday accommodation in London for Wimbledon 2010 Tennis Tournament commencing Monday 21st June.

Wimbledon 2009, saw Roger Federer and Serena Williams add to their collections of Wimbledon titles. 2010 may be different with Rafael Nadal and Justine Henin back in action.

Accommodation for Wimbledon:
For those travelling from further afield to watch Wimbledon, book your holiday accommodation in London early.

Men’s 2010 Wimbledon
Roger Federer is 2010 Wimbledon tournament favourite and could claim a seventh Wimbledon title if he performs this year. However, every legend of the game eventually moves over to fresh and younger talent and amongst these is Rafael Nadal, who has put his injury nitemares of 2009 behind him. The Spaniard has the skill and determination to beat Federer at Wimbledon, and clinch back the title he won in 2008.

Murray hasn’t been at his best in 2010, although things could change on grass, in front of the home crowd at Wimbledon.

Women’s 2010 Wimbledon
The Williams sisters have dominated Wimbledon in recent years and the Serena Williams appears to be the bookmakers favourite, while sister Venus is trailing with marginally lower odds.

The Williams sisters are physical, and excellent grass court players, but maybe 2010 could make way for newer talent.

Belgian Justine Henin is the obvious candidate and the skill to win at Wimbledon and take down her third title. She has the fitness, tenacity and mental strength and is a strong contender.

Kim Clijsters and Maria Sharapova are also significant threats to the Williams sisters. Clijsters and Sharapova can beat the Williams sisterswhile Elena Dementieva, Caroline Wozniacki and Dinara Safina are also capable of beating the Williams when playing their best.

Paul enjoys stays in holiday apartments during his travels for both business and pleasure throughout Europe and Middle East where holiday accommodation
