Much more than a bit on the side Douglas Rimington took his camera to Somerset House for the designer exhibition during London Fashion Week photographed by Douglas Rimington/www.detunephotography.com   Aristide   Feet Fairies   Yes Master     DURING LONDON FASHION WEEK, photographer Douglas Rimington took his camera to some of the exhibits. Brands we checked out include French Sole, known for its ballet flats—with some lovely fashion-forward colours for autumn. Bjørg jewellery, meanwhile, showed some lovely pieces still inspired by Charles Darwin’s work on evolution. Other accessories’ brands were there in force: French label Aristide showed its gloves; Antoni Burakowski and Alison Roberts’ Antoni & Alison showed bags, wallets and purses. Feet Fairies showed its shoes that could be folded into small pouches. We checked out underwear from Yes Master, still spooky and inspired by Edgar Allan Poe, while Brazelle showed some delightful bra clips that link on to strapless bras (a good idea that eliminates visible bra straps). Designers Michigan duo Erickson Beamon, Jane Carr (with her signature prints), the award-winning Patrick Cox and Nicholas Kirkwood, Amr Ali’s Body Amr, Irwin & Jordan, French-born, London-based Bryce Aime were among the brands we rated highly at the exhibition. The exhibition also saw two sets of twins show their labels: Felder & Felder, helmed by twin sisters Annette and Daniela; and the colourful Tata-Naka, from identical twins Tamara and Natasha Surgurladze of Georgia. •     Douglas Rimington is a London-based fashion photographer, who began collaborating with Lucire in 2004.
