If there’s one thing right up there with my obsession with fashion, my next fixation has got to be with all things sparkly, and then maybe Coca Cola comes in a close third.
So for the baddest (i.e.meaning a good thing) show of those I attended at London Fashion Week, the Ashish show took the biscuit for weirdly managing to incorporate those three things in one.
It’s a given that designer Ashish Gupta has already ‘fessed up to being a bit of a sequin whore, but when you factor in kitsch details like everyday super brands depicted through the medium of those sparkly little numbers, paired with iconic carrier bags (in sequins obvs!) we were treated to a grunge meets glam take of the Ashish Spring 2014 vision.
To be fair it wasn’t all about Coca Cola, it was mostly about sequins and super chunky necklaces…
And maybe a small nod to Pepsi thrown in for good measure…
I’m not sure in the real world you would style all of these pieces straight off the runway, but you could certainly cherry pick a few pieces and pair them with your regular garb to pull off sparkly spring grunge,
