Jeremy Scott AW12

You simply cannot guess what will appear down the runway in a Jeremy Scott fashion show. His AW12 collection was full to the brim of unexpected motifs and acid tripping colours. The silhouettes strongly reflected the 1970s, with disco-esque dungarees, funky flares teamed with sky scraping platforms. Everyone's favourite rebel, Bart Simpson, was plastered over thigh high leg warmers, hot pants and a matching long sleeve knit to create an incredibly eye catching look. The hair and make up was just as wacky as the clothing. Bobbed hair was crimped to the max, while gems created a mask like shape around the eyes of the model's, which contrasted with the vibrant blue lipstick, resulting in a space like vibe. All in all Scott's collection was as psychedelically futuristic as it gets, whilst channelling the eccentricity of the spaced out seventies.

Adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott






American born Jeremy Scott, known for his outlandish, bold style, is a designer who you can't ignore. His designs are made up of vivid prints, bright colours and cartoon characters, including Mickey Mouse. The famous favour his bizarre style; everyone from Bjork to Nicki Minaj and Agyness Deyn to Miss Piggy have worn and loved his designs.
However, it's his recent SS12 collection for Adidas that I have been magnetically drawn too. I adore anything with stars and stripes so it is no wonder I am lusting after these sporty designs. In addition to the clothing, Scott has designed a number of Adidas original trainers, including a pair in American print with wings that ooze a Wonder Women appeal, a pair in Scary Spice's favourite, leopard print and a pair in the shape of a gorilla. Unfortunately, not even my student loan can stretch to afford anything from this collection, therefore I will continue to lust after the Superhero vs. Jungle themed designs. No one can blend fashion and sport together in the same way Scott can. So much more than your average gym wear.
