ORIGAMI VIBES AT J.W. ANDERSON

ANTIPODIUM'S ARMOUR The green Encyclopedia Britannica possibly got it's first ever fashion reference today, courtesy of Antipodium and its 'digital culture becomes millennial muse' themed show. Times New Roman was the title of the collection, and as such the girls were modern-day centurions, ready for battle in natty pleated skorts, shift dresses and a healthy dose of Chenille (so Nineties). The palette of lava orange, burnished bronze and stony grey kept the ancient Roman theme flowing, as did the collaged print of a Roman bust that kept popping up. Feather-lashed T-bar heels with slouchy mud-coloured socks accessorised every girl, and fast made their way onto many a wish-list. It's certainly clear to see why creative director Geoffrey Finch has recently been snapped up as a consultant by Topshop - he's bang on when it comes to knowing what the cool girls want as their sartorial armour.

For hair, Turner explained how this was J.W. Anderson's version "of a mad woman.This hair was once set, but now she's lost her mind and her ponytail looks just a little bit destroyed. You get the impression there's a lady in there somewhere, but she's just gone a little bit mad."

SIBLING HEADS TO THE RIVIERA

WHOOPS A DAISY Just when we thought we were going to have another addition to our aptly titled 'Models falling over' gallery, this Sibling lady managed to regain her composure. Rather, as the Twitter sphere furiously shouted 'TAKE THEM OFF', she complied and removed the pesky shoes, which (to be honest) didn't even look that high.
