SHEN AW15 show at Fashion Week 2014

I love SHEN, the label by Mary-Ellen Prendergast. This is the perfect example of a very nice collection that would be ideal for women with busy, varied lives, who need clothes to carry them from work, to home, to out, or dinner at friends without changing more than your lipstick and perhaps a shoe. For daywear there are shortsleeved dresses,  asymetric shoulder dresses, and very flattering grey coats. For evening, there is Lurex, leather and chiffon outfits. The shiny black Perspex catwalk was very sexy too! My favourite piece would be the slender cut black suit with satin lapels; it was gorgeous. I also loved the beauty with slick centre-parted hair and a blended out bronze eye, strong brows, and a nude lip.
