Final stop for the night was the Service Depot, for a special off-site presentation of Jimmy D’s AW’13 ‘Gloom Generation’ collection, hosted in collaboration with Matthew Stopforth of BrightBlack. As time slowly progressed, Service Depot filled up with a darkly dressed fashionable crowd, who shortly after 9pm, were asked to part from the runway, so that the show could begin.

KJ by Kirrily Johnston dress (similar), Karen Walker x Beau Coops loafers (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Karen Walker bracelet & ring Going for a bit of contrast against the norm in stark white, in what has quickly become one of my favourite dresses, which you may recall that I also have in black – a perfect staple for winter.

Country Rd chambray shirt (similar), girl. by Band of Outsiders skirt, Karen Walker x Beau Coops loafers (similar), KW & SGC rings, MBMJ katie bracelet, Proenza Schouler PS11 bag I’ve been getting plenty of mileage out of this skirt over the summer months, more so than I expected during the moment I was impulse buying it from the Forward by Elyse Walker online store, and I’m hoping that the same can be said of these cream and minty toned loafers I recently picked up.
