Phoebe Philo's Pre-Fall collection is a triumph. I hardly need to point out why because I think the photos speak for themselves. The collection is feminine and strong, elegant, impeccably cut and tailored, and a beautiful combination of style eras. There is a clear 60s mod inspiration with the geometric block colour combinations and strong, bold lines but the pieces also hark back to the 1940s and 1950s with tweed, the classic trench, the pointed toe heels (finally they're back!). But most admirable is Philo's twist on the suit - the pants - cut very close to the ankle are quirky and very French-looking. The blazer - cut in a very 60s/70s style - the green patchwork blazer makes me think of a young woman studying at Oxford University - is just perfect. I could not speak more highly of this outstanding collection. A special mention to Suzie Bird who models most of the collection and has brought out the best in the pieces.
