Central Saint Martins
As the powerhouse university for some of the world's most renowned fashion designers, CSM's Masters showcase is a clear sign of the future of fashion. From minimalist perfection to head-to-toe sequins, each student had their own take on what would be perfect for London's (arguably) best season.Alexander McQueen
Sarah Burton made a magical collection this season. It initially started with a stunning coat that seemed to connote Alice in Wonderland, and just got better. The mystifying collection reflected the magic of the colder seasons, and the cut-out filled clothes seem perfect for a winter wonderland.
Temperly London
My favorite part of this collection was the weaving on some of the pieces. Not only does it create a statement piece, but it makes any item look much more formal. The collection almost seemed to scream "global warming means flowers in autumn, but just in case here are some more". I loved it, and have an inkling that florals will be a trend for autumn (*gasp*)

Mulberry
This collection was the a classic AW one, which was expected from the traditional brand that is Mulberry. With thick muted coats, gorgeous boots and little pops of color, it's exactly what you'd want to wear in the colder months. Something warm with a punch.
Burberry

Regular fashion week readers will know of my love for Burberry. Instead of forcing you into reading more of it, i'll just link you to my spiel here. Unlike the Spring collection, Autumn seemed to diverge from the quintessential Burberry trend. I'm still not sure how I feel about the lack of trenches and tartan scarves, but I'll just have to deal with it. Everyone is talking about the makeup here! The little pop of glitter may or may not be a prom trend...

Anya Hindmarch
I feel like an old person when I say this, but I'm going to say it regardless. I still remember when Anya Hindmarch sold simple, sparkly bags. That was back when they had cosmetic bags on British Airways and were still a giant blip on the worlds radar. Since then, it's become a hit with 20 year olds and 90s kids, paying homage to Tetris, Pac Man and classic arcade games. Whilst the collections aren't the most wearer friendly (I mean, there are only so many times you can wear a Tetris coat), they certainly are fun!Topshop Unique
Many teenagers will probably be surprised that Topshop has a show at fashion week. I know I sure was. The "high street" (I'm sorry but some of the clothes are pricy for high street) brand has a massive following, and the show is attended by countless celebrities and bloggers every season. It could hint at the possibility that high street brands will have some models strutting down the runway in their clothes soon, too, considering the success. With some stunning nude and black coats (one of which was Burberry-esque), Topshop provides fashionistas on a budget (well, debatable) with the opportunity to buy some high quality, on trend clothes at a cheap(er) price.
