Mulberry Fall 2011...

With a fairytale Fantastic Mr. Fox theme the Mulberry show took place in the ballroom at Claridges in London.  Decorated with woodland scenery; giant toadstools, stuffed birds and drenches of foliage, the show began - minus Alexa Chung sat front row.  The majority of the collection was very earthy, with muted colours; beige, aubergine, khaki, grey and hints of tan.  Then  in-between was the classic pops of colour in a deep plum, and lilac. Styles were classic mixed with contemporary with quilted trench coats worn over dresses with a flouncy hem.  Jodpur style trousers with knee boots, box pleated a line minis and culottes.  My favourite piece from the collection was the box pleat Mulberry purple print mini skirt worn with a simple lilac roll neck, classic yet young and playful.  The blogs are alive with the sound of Mulberry....

A fashionable entrance indeed...
