First up, Mary Katrantzou, queen of over the top prints. A departure from her last season florals, I've picked three rather crazy outfits which made me smile.
The one in the middle with a typewriter on the top of the dress reminds me of the dressing up outfits I used to make in my youth like a dress with piano keys up my front.
Basso and Brooke: These three outfits are probably the most subtle, colourwise, from the collection. They've got a sort of patchwork moodboard elegance.
The CSM graduate shows were as varied and boundary pushing as ever. I liked these fresh designs from Charlotte Helyar with small splashes of digital print.
Another CSM graduate - Hiroko Nakajima. These are knitted so shouldn't officially be in this print review but they act as a calming antidote to all the manic riotous patterns!
I love them for the simple graphic shapes and wonderful colours.
