The label on everybodies lips, not only for his consecutively successful seasons, but also for his fantastic collaboration with Topshop, showcasing to the high street a capsule collection influenced from all his previous high end collections.
You can pick up a fabulous neon yellow body con dress integrated with lace for just £50, and unlike many of the designer-shop collaborations, this time it is actually believable. It is more designer and less shop and you would be forgiven for thinking it is the real deal.
Is this where the future lies? Already collaborations are popping up across the board, with;
Yasmin le Bon for Wallis, Henry Holland for Debenhams, Jil Sander for Uniqlo and Jimmy Choo for H&M, to name a few.
It's hard to trace back when these high street collaborations started, but i vaguely remember Roland Mouret for Gap back in 06.
When you think about it, isn't all fashion a collaboration of some kind? With designers moving between labels and the continuing movements, and cultural changes we are exposed to....
