London fashion week kicks off on the 18th September and I personally cannot wait. I love each and every fashion week but London’s version holds a special place in my heart. Not only will we see huge productions from the likes of Vivienne Westwood, Burberry Prorsum, Mulberry and the like but we’ll see so many new up and coming designers, maaaaan it’s going to be so amazing, I really can’t wait.

So as you can probably tell I am counting the days until the 18th, but not just because London is set to showcase some of the most spectacular designs known to mankind. You see Cheshire is also getting in on the act. The one and only legendary Sharon Bowen is hosting her very own come back show right on my doorstep and I’ve been invited along to cover the event…eeeeeek!

Sharon originally trained in Paris and has crafted exquisite gowns for the likes of Chloe and Dior. Her bridal collections are truly a sight to behold and have been seen just about everywhere. If you’re looking for something of the peg or an incredible bespoke number then Sharon can hook you up. I visited her shop in Congelton today and fell in love with about 10 dresses! One in particular caught my eye and I can’t stop dreaming about it. Now before any of my friends and family start getting excited thinking I have caught the bride bug (at long last) forget it. The dress I’m dreaming about is for the winter wonderland ball…

I am in L…O…V…E… and if this incredible dress isn’t tempting enough I spotted a second option that was crying out to be taken home with me…

Sharon’s shop is full of inspiration and no matter what you are looking for you can bet your bottom dollar she can deliver it. I am waiting with baited breath to finally feast my eyes on her 2015 bridal and evening wear collection. So if any of you guys are up north, getting married, attending a special occasion and need a dress, or fancy attending an amazing night of fashion then come join the fun and be part of Sharon’s mystical world for the evening!

PEACE & LOVE
