"This collection started with our iconic heritage as the foundation, we really wanted to emphasise this feeling of handcrafted pieces, celebrating craftsmanship but always with this playful element. We have taken our icons and played with texture to personalise and give them a real character and charm using colour to highlight the intricate detail that goes into crafting them." (Christopher Bailey)

Great coverage!!!! I feel like I was there. How much fun. I really hope you keep all those invitations too. They'll be great mementos one day.

The clothes are gorgeous and wearable. I think I'd wear some of it myself!
