Every time I enter Topshop Oxford Circus, my heart flutters a little, well quite a lot actually. This is because Topshop was the first place I got properly excited about clothes, a place I could go and drown entirely in the possibilities and options calling out to me across those three huge floors. Autumn/Winter 2012, and this summer for that matter, are going to be seasons to get really excited about a trip to Topshop. In fact, those of us lucky enough to go to the Unique show during February's LFW have been in a thrall since we saw the luxe military, shearling and bomber coats parading past us as part of former Vogue Fashion Director Kate Phelan's first collection as Creative Director.
I went along to Topshop's press day this morning where I heard plenty of fashion press discussing which jumper/ coat/ trouser they'd be ordering.
The neckline on this red crosses jumper is going to look bang on for AW12.
Melanie is ordering one of these
That low polo neck again, this time sportier. I wanted to wrap myself up in this quilted, animal-y jumper.
One of the best things about the Unique collection is the heavy, layered up theme which runs through. It makes it look and feel properly high end.
Melanie's favourite bomber, she wants the coat version too (greedy girl)
My personal favourite- zippy shearling...
Double breasted bomber.... Genius.
AND there were highly covetable accessories...
Next Friday sees the launch of Maarten Van Der Horst's collaboration. If you like the Fashion East designer's Hawaiian shirt spin offs and bright colours then you'll love the Topshop line. I've got my eye on the tailored Bermuda shorts. Alex Fury wrote all about the trend for Hawaiian prints in last Sunday's Indy.
Finally, if you're still searching for perfect pyjama then never fear, Boutique is coming to the rescue. I immediately made a mental shopping list for the red overblown paisley print tee and shorts which will hit stores in May. Oh Topshop, you do spoil us.
