GKFW
The first of its kind took place in London 2 weeks ago.
And
like any proper fashion show ‘WHO’ is sitting on the FROW is just as important as what comes down the catwalk. GKFW didnt disappoint with a
mix of hip models, aristocracy, actresses, wags and cool musicans. We spotted some serious fashion everything from Chanel to CHLOE, Maje to Michael Kors. Louboutinto Nickolas Kirkwood.
On the FROW were :Model
Portia Freeman, who as an ambassador for GKFW was present everyday. Across the days we spotted her in
Chloe’s spring pastels and Michael Kors red/black striped 7/8th trousers with towering heels. We love the fact that, as the evening wore on she slipped into a pair of Salvatore Ferragamo ‘Vara’ pumps. Her husband, who I was practically rubbing elbows with is Pete Denton of the Kooks. I have no idea about whos-who in the music biz.
Actress Bodil Blain and her daughter were papped as they jumped out of a cab, then inside her daughter legged it across the catwalk mid show to Jemma & Jodie Kidd. Jodie’s handsome little fella Indio was trying to join the catwalk & Jodie spent most of her time trying to wrestle him to a seat.
Actress Camilla Rutherford, who we saw later that same night presenting an award at the
Rodial Beauty Awards Saskia Boxford had a to-die-for pair of Nicholas Kirkwood. .
As always, Emily Evans owner of
9London looked effortlessly cool in Chanel and Jimmy Choo’s.
Pippa Vosper, naturally looked striking throughout the course of the weeks events.
Louise Nichol of Harper’s Bazaar Arabia @BazaarArabia editor-in-chief and former editor of Grazia Middle East looked impossibly gorgeous and was there with her tiny new baby and husband. Blogger Heidi Raeside founder of Tuesday’s Child was also there rocking laid back style. While Olcay Gulsen of
SuperTrash fame looked uber cute. Uber stylist Bay Garnet was also there with her kids.
Alex&Alexa’s own Senior Buyer, Vanessa Benedict caught out eye in her stylish take on the tux. She looked excellent in Maje and Sergio Rossi heels.
Post show everyone sipped champagne whilst listening to a set by model
Amber Le Bon, who also entertained us later at the
Rodial Awards, where she picked up an award for her Mother Yasmin from Melissa Odabash.
The kiddos jumped in the photo-booth(as did we later on!) and had their nails painted at the
Little Bu pop-up salon. Ate fresh popcorn and treats from Pret.
There was a host of other beautiful people making GKFW a must event.
