London Fashion Week: BIBA S/S 07

It's the long awaited and much press anticipated return of BIBA under Freud, so there should be no chance of getting in? Or so thats what they would like you to believe i arrive with another friend and tell security i need to get in as i'm press they say i have to wait. Then these to other girls from press come sayin "we're from The Times", and are allowed in i swiftly follow in hot on the heels with them grabbing the hand of my friend with me. Once in i conversate with them about what they are doing, press are then allowed in but at the door they ask for ticket so i grab my friend and go to the other entrance door where they don't ask for tickets and walk right in. On entering i found that goodie bags are only on the front row seats and sadly this is a trend to follow every BFC Tent Catwalk show i go to. As we walk to our row of seats i grab a goodie bag confidently as not to draw attention and my friend gets one. We sit on the second row near the catwalk enterance and are immediately blinded by the paparazzi's lights as they begin to snap Laura Bailey (the new face of M&S) who was seated in front of me. I too wanting to get in on this call out Laura darling, she turns round and i have a good photo snap of her smiling, people laugh and tell me i'm good (a journalist and a budding Photographer ah?). Then Hugh Grant and Jemima khan aka Goldsmith (yes money women) walk in and the Paparazzi quickly forget Laura and move on to the highest Famous Faces. The former part of the collection looked like Bella Freud had been lazy creatively and stolen her grand parents collection whilst the latter part looked more modern twists and up to date BIBA, i just love the slinky Purple Dresses.
