London Fashion Week Highlight: Matthew Williamson

        







 

Matthew Williamson could teach a course on color. Each season, he incorporates color in a way that is attention-grabbing but not overpowering. Take the fur coat in the first look down the runway: gray, sky blue, aqua, and fox brown and it doesn't look as distasteful as it may sound - in fact, it's a standout piece in this collection. Square sequins placed on garments in geometric patterns, along with gold slacks and leather pants, felt super modern. The eveningwear felt fresh and contemporary, with lace overlay, a cool flame-like print, and bright blues and corals.
