Olivia Boswell is on location for Thread.co.nz this week at London Fashion Week 2012…
London Fashion Week day two opened at 10am so naturally I arrived two hours fashionably late. I walked under the archways into Somerset House courtyard and could tell the Brits didn’t have the same attitude.
The fashion pack were all already here with photographers in tow. I was trying to get through the swathe of parading people to registration when I was stopped by a flamboyant young man wearing a giant knuckle duster. His name was Louis and he asked if he could interview me for FashTag TV.
I was so proud to be representing for New Zealand designers back home with my twentysevennames bomber jacket and Kathryn Wilson shoes! I stuck around the entrance for a while taking photos and getting mine taken. People loved my vintage floral dress from Berlin, although some were upset they couldn’t buy it for themselves. Here are a few snaps that I took throughout the day.

Below: Charlie Lewis from Manchester wears vintage shoes and jacket, a handmade dress and an Urban Outfitters purse.
I have no idea who these girls are because she gave us the finger so I didn’t want to ask. Harijuku style was big with the bloggers though.
Below: Martja Dewet on holiday from South Africa wears dress by SA designer Ilan, jacket and shoes Zara, and earrings she made herself.
Below: Kerry Wheeler wears all Lululiu, a local London designer. Shoes vintage.
