See the street style looks from London Fashion Week Fall 2014 »

After the tundra-like conditions of New York Fashion Week, the fair weather in London seemed practically tropical for fashion editors and bloggers alike. Shedding their heavy fur and parkas, the outfits at the Fall 2014 shows were playful and outerwear was shot with bright colour and done in shorter lengths.

Euro street style star Yasmin Sewell was the hit of the weekend, proving when in doubt, add more colour. She was first seen in a colour blocked black and orange duster with silver pumps and a blue turtleneck and then later in a gorgeous yellow silk skirt, burgundy platform sandals and a fuzzy blue pullover. Harley Viera Newton meanwhile toughened up a cutesy pink rose patterned dress, with a matching bomber and black accessories. That recognizable pop-art jacket from Prada’s Spring 2014 collection, sported by many at NYFW, including Giovanna Battaglia, made the the jump across the pond as well as numbers from previous collections, including Spring 2012’s coveted car print clutch.

Given the well-heeled ladies and gents that show up for a Joe Fresh fashion show, you’d never believe the label’s wears run as affordably as they do. Though as any Loblaws shopper in Canada knows, they do. After last night’s punky all-black Fall 2013 outing, showgoers were looking to kick off their heels (proverbially speaking) with signature orange cocktails, mini tacos and pulsing DJ beats at the private watering hole, Storys.

Fresh off the Fresh runway, models Heather Marks, Meaghan Collison and a group of studly males in tight sweaters flooded the room with just enough impossible beauty to make the ogling worth it. Creative director Joe Mimran and wife Kimberley Newport-Mimran showed up in coordinated head-to-toe black suiting, adding their own luxe touch to the non-colour of the night. As the two cozied up to Loblaws frontman Galen Weston, nightclub impresario Charles Khabouth and our favourite dandy, Bruce C. Bailey, an informal dance party broke out with queen of the moves, Andrea Bolley, at the forefront. Just an average rip roaring night in Toronto as of late, it seems.
