January always feels like the longest month of the year. It feels like ages ago we celebrated new resolutions and new beginnings and already I may have failed to keep up with the days without sugar, or with ‘Dynamo’ the Parisian version of Soul Cycle.

"I WANTED TO CAPTURE that happy, elated feeling of self-expression," said Emilia Wickstead backstage after her spring/summer show, staged at a London Art Deco location that few people knew about. The Harlem Renaissance was the inspiration, and while it could have been reflected with more diversity on the runway, it was certainly in evidence in the clothes. There were wide sunhats tied at the chin, calling to mind those worn in the fields, paired with demure silhouettes and dropped hemlines. There were plays on transparency, perhaps what a modern It girl would like to see more of, especially when paired with some 'mom' jeans and white t-strap heels. There was a pink drop-waisted dress with an alluring cut-out at the chest. And then, of course, the sequinned gowns in rose gold that seemed to be emitting light, drawing smiles on showgoers' faces. Who doesn't love some glamour, especially amidst all the turmoil happening in the world?
