Adam Ant Meets Alice Through The Looking Glass

Cargo Hall, 2.30pm
When Ericaamerica pull off their show, they're bringing us back to tea parties, secret gardens, and even a visit to a cowboy saloon. The reminder that girls are girls and boys are boys is their driving force, and this was still the clear message in their show today. Their collection "Dressage" for women demonstrated their hard work, via full-volume ballerina skirts and ruffed jackets with tapestry embroideries. Puff sleeves, lace and bask vests were evident throughout the show. Boys looked like they've just come off the hot rodeo stage, wearing tight stove pipe jeans, Buffalo Bill shirts and Liberty Valance waistcoats. An inspiring show with a clothes collection that will sell like hotcakes; for lovers of Victorian fashion, or for those with A Fist Full of Dollars. More images.

While I certainly don't love all the pieces in that collection, there are some really pretty pieces in there. Very interesting line, to say the least!

There was something appealing with their collection though - their feminine cuts probably. Plus also good fun seeing a slightly different range than the usual wimsical romantic stuff...
