Fashion forecast

There’s no such thing as a quiet week in fashion. Emma McCarthy looks at the days ahead

4 March 2013

MONDAY

Icon-ography

Clarks does good shoes. Eley Kishimoto does good prints. So it makes sense that together they do great printed shoes. Launching today to celebrate the British/Japanese label’s 20th anniversary, three classic styles from the Clarks shoe archive have been given a jazzy makeover. These geometric wedge sandals have us (almost) thinking it’s actually spring.

TUESDAY

Working the sixties

Taking on board the Mary Quant minis and modish graphic prints of the late Sixties, Mad Men’s costume designer Janie Bryant has created her third collection for Banana Republic. As modelled by Coco Rocha, the 50-plus piece range swings into stores today. Megan Draper, you’ve got competition. (£99.50, bananarepublic.co.uk)

WEDNESDAY

Glamping

Be sure to buy your ticket today for the Vogue Festival. Thanks to an ever-expanding list of industry folk such as Victoria Beckham, Christopher Kane and Natalie Massenet, tickets for the event on April 27 and 28 are selling like hot cakes. Better yet, you can make like Henry Holland and Nicholas Kirkwood and star in your very own Vogue Cover shoot, with make-up and accessories from Chanel. (£30, southbankcentre.co.uk/voguefestival)

THURSDAY

Suits you

Head down to Topman today to get first dibs on its new LUX collection. Based around a small (but perfectly formed) capsule range of suits, cobalt blue tailoring cut from dobbie satin and jacquard wool sit alongside crisp white shirts, navy lightweight knits and woven leather high tops. We can certainly see how it got its name. (Suit, £300; topman.com)

FRIDAY

Dear Mum

With Mother’s Day fast approaching, give yours what every woman wants — the gift of Chanel. But this year, go one further and visit its specially created flower stall. Situated outside Covent Garden’s Chanel boutique from today until Sunday, the stall offers you the chance to find your perfect fragrance through fresh flowers. Present your mum with both a bunch of blooms courtesy of Chanel and the knowledge that there are 1,000 jasmine flowers and 12 May Roses in her bottle of No 5. (chanelatcoventgarden.com)
