It was hard to miss Bryan Boy on the first day of MBFWA, wearing a printed sweater by Christopher Kane which struck me as something of a novelty, an ode to youth, and of course those incredible studded Prada loafers. Thankfully he was more than obliging when I asked to take his photo amidst a sea of people inside the Carriageworks, as I complimented him on his choice of shoes. Nina, this one’s for you.
