The backdrop of a fashion show can be just as iconic as the clothes shown in it. Many say Raf Simmons made his name with his first couture collection at Dior, where he lined the walls from floor to ceiling with fresh flowers. The iconic floral walls, which continue to influence a lot of Dior marketing and runway shows today, returned in style this year - in a more modern setting with stained glass panels that allowed light to pour through. Switching this on its head, a blank canvas can be almost as defining and dramatic, and the grey walls and floors seen at the Fyodar Gdan show is mirroring trends seen in home décor for grey walls. It leaves the room ready for either defining furniture, or as a dramatic base for a minimalist room.

‘Florals? For spring? How inspired’ Miranda, The Devil Wears Prada’
While Miranda may not have been impressed by the floral designs seen at Emilia Wickstead last Saturday, we certainly were. The vintage looking florals with the modern twist didn’t look dated or twee because the clashing patterns and sharp lines used really modernised the look. This is certainly something you can recreate in your own home, with a helping hand from this blog based solely around interior design.

Leather, red lips, and velvet led the way with the punk dressing seen in London last week. The look is a dramatic one, and certainly not everyone’s taste for the home. Proven by the outlandish effort by Khloe Kardashian taking her Range Rover and covering in black velvet, you can take elements of this trend and make it fun. The article linked shows how you can take this dramatic trend and turn it into inspiration for a habitable, fun looking apartment.
