Magical touch at London Fashion Week

Jonathan Saunders worked magic with primary colours, presenting a collection of sleek, feather-light dresses in jewel tones of rich red, green and blue at London Fashion Week on Saturday.

Models with hair pulled back in clean, simple ponytails wore high-collared silk satin blouses and below-the-knee sheath dresses.

Although high slits showed the occasional flash of thigh, the overall style was conservative and demure.

Chunky platform shoe-boots in metallic and velvet kept the look modern and balanced the lightness of the silk garments.

Burgundy was a key colour, with many blouses, blazers and dresses also made with colourful, intricate art nouveau-inspired silk screen prints-a signature technique of Saunders.
