For the last day of fashion week I added a new colour to my spectrum wardrobe - this pale duck egg blue / airforce aqua. It's a collaboration between Rapha and Liberty's Art print archive which is a first for a performance sportswear brand. Their graphic aesthetic has brought about a novel selection from the floral archetype of Liberty's heritage series. The 1930's optical dot pattern begins a two season partnership between the two British brands. The complete range carries across the active wear to the accessories and city line. I wore the whole look which fortuitously matched the colour scheme for fashion week, with the BFC's own choice of turquoise. The new LFW venue on Brewer Street was also only a few doors down from Rapha's London Cycle Club where the line launched to coincide. It's available at their other international stores and Liberty with a window installation and two bikes built from the pattern paintwork. I'm mega chuffed with the Musette bag which has upgraded my usual backpack for a more fluid messenger chic!
