There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly

With New York fashion week nearly over and London about to begin the Autumn/Winter shows are in full swing. It takes me back to September when everybody was really excited about the Spring Summer shows. Alexander McQueen's show debuted by Sarah Burton was one of my favourites. It's inspiration was firmly rooted in Nature and a few dresses included amazing brightly coloured butterflies. Butterflies were also seen at other Spring Summer shows such as Loewe, Carlos Miele, Jun Jun Cambe and on a blouse at Sportmax; confirming them as a Spring/Summer trend for 2011.
