Christopher Kane Spring / Summer '12

If you were to ask me who my favourite designers are, almost without thinking the name Christopher Kane would spurt from my mouth. From his galaxy prints to his liquid 'pencil case' dresses and bags, his previous collections have been popular with bloggers, fashion editors and stylists alike. His current collection was one of the standout shows last fashion week and helped to kick-start the current trend for iridescent, translucent and sheer clothing - very mermaid-like. So here is a look back to that collection, some images of editorial and features, and I pick my key pieces and outfits available online now.
