It's raining men..

Monday the 7th of January 2013 kicks off the three day event 'London Collections: Men' also known as men's fashion week. London Collections will attract the biggest and best menswear designers of our time, along with journalists, bloggers and celebrities alike. London Collections started off last June, where there was definitely a buzz around it, however this time around people seem to be getting a lot more envolved and excited about the shows and exhibitions that follow. 

London Collections has a lot of people describing London as 'the capital of menswear' and I have to agree, the talent and determination of designers in London is so refreshing right now. Before London Collections menswear designers had a dedicated day at London Fashion Week which led many to argue they weren't allocated enough time. London Collections has given other menswear designers the opportunity to showcase their collections and get their name heard.

London Collections has really given menswear a new lease of life and everyone from the designers to journalists and the media have really embraced it. I will be covering some of the shows, in the forthcoming days, so don't forget to check out my blog this week. Also remember we are now in the 21st century and you can now watch most of the shows from the comfort of your own home.
