I'm writing this from the back of our Marie Claire car between shows and reflecting on a busy few weeks as we near the end of Fashion Month.
A key highlight for me this year was the atmosphere during London Fashion Week. It was the first one since Laura Weir was made CEO of the British Fashion Council and her vision of ‘positive transformation’ was palpable. In her opening speech she spoke about removing barriers to entry, loosening criteria to welcome fresh perspectives and championing homegrown talent. The collections on show genuinely reflected this and were a powerful reminder of why London is so special leading the in creativity, sustainability and innovation.

Meanwhile, I'm rounding up 6 easy-to-style statement pieces I packed to get me through this week as I navigated the the temperamental Parisian weather.
