Akris had the sexiest and most wearable collection of Spring 2013 and it's easy to see why. They celebrated their 90th anniversary by showing that Akris is still at the forefront of fashion. Sheer was taken to the edge and back with the dress worn by Lais Ribeiro almost too hot for the runway. Every on-trend colour of the spectrum was covered and resulted in beautifully cut, clean, simple and sexy ensembles - all of which I would lovingly covet in my wardrobe. What is very impressive is the return of ballet flats as the perfect way to complete any outfit - heels are not the only way on the catwalk. A hearty congratulations to the team at Akris for one of the finest collections of the season.

Chloé celebrated its 60th anniversary this Spring by sticking to their long-held design values of clean, sleek and feminine simplicity whilst giving it a modern edge. White, black, navy, pastels and metallics made the cut with some beautifully placed sheer fabric and loose fitting but structured designs. This label is one of my favourites as it combines elegance and a touch of the feminine with absolute comfort. Their clothes are flattering and can boost the most unconfident woman. As I'm sure you would agree, Chloé has celebrated this special occasion with a classic and memorable collection.
