Southwark College started today's event with a collection divided into three parts. First, 'The Pillow Book' focused on Chinese and Indian designs with long silk skirts, purple boot cut trousers with flower embroidery and an opulent orange sequined coat. Then street style reigned free with a display of mix-match pieces including crocheted column dresses with hip cut outs and matching leg warmers, a sky line print jacket for men in organza and a micro mini dress with flowing tail. With the addition of outrageous hats (including an incredible ivy and twig creation) this was a fanciful Disney-meets-'Waterworld' collection.
	Lisa Vaughan's 'Travelbag Originals' conjures images of exotic eastern shores. Orange and purple dominated the colour palette with luxurious satin tunics worn over pyjama pants, gold flecks appearing on chiffon black jackets and a full-length empire line dress in purple with organza shoulders.
The Perpetual Beauty Carnival College fused fun and architectural innovation with their wacky costumes. The Astrology costume (a black stain dress with a huge web attached showing signs of the zodiac) appeared alongside the Leo costume (a lion's head in gold with a crown headdress) and a fish-endowed net dress themed on Pisces.
	'Space Span' by Kulpa Patel is inspired by the Bauhaus movement and mixes geometric shapes with modern fabrics. Asymmetric trousers with snake skin patterns on the pockets appeared alongside Emma Peel mini dresses worn with knee-high boots.
