Street Style: Brick Lane
Interview by Sarah Marsh, photographed by Ryan O'Dea
Matthew, studying art at Kingston University, looked stunning in his military style jacked.
He said, "Brick Lane is about diversity, there is a massive mix of shops, selling a variety of reasonably priced things. People come from all over to visit Brick Lane, it is a place that brings people together. I love hard military fashions".
Military fashion is nothing new, it has been around since 2008 but while some trends burn out, the military look is set to evolve in 2010 and come back bigger than ever. Military is now about functionality and utility.
Street Style: Brick Lane
Interview by Sarah Marsh, photographed by Ryan O'Dea.
Franchesca and Ricardo, both Italian tourists, were browsing around the stalls on Brick Lane.
Franchesca, when asked about Brick Lane, said: "I love shopping on Brick Lane because you can find cheap, second hand clothes here. It requires a bit of looking but when you find something perfect it's worth it!"
Franchesca was wearing a stunning lace dress that she got from Italy, and a well fitted leather jacket. Her striking hat and beautiful red lipstick meant she stood out from the crowds.
The Spring/Summer fashions of 2011, according to London Fashion Week, will see the return of lace and leathers- so this girl is ahead of the trends.

Hail the mini Fashion Icon
When I was younger fashion to me was about matching what I was wearing with my favourite tele tubby, but not anymore...low and behold the rise of the pint sized trend setters.
Heading the stakes David Beckham's eldest son, set to be announced as the country's 26th most fashion-forward male in the country as unveiled by GQ magazine. The young star was listed ahead of Prince William and Jude Law. Shock-horror! GQ described young Romeo (Posh's offspring) as, "frighteningly tuned in". So, it seems Romeo has out shone even his father at the ripe old age of 8, how embarrassing. David Walker Smith, director of menswear at Selfridges, told the magazine "[Romeo] is experimental, quirky and fun, and his style has nothing mini-me about it. It's me-me".
In 2009 Victoria Beckham spoke about just how interested in fashion her spawn had become saying: "We had dinner last night and Romeo wore a suit with a little shirt and tie. That's what he would wear every single day, he's so into fashion". (Interview with Victoria Beckham for Harper's Bazaar).
And it doesn't stop there as last September, it was reported, that Romeo would be launching his own range of sunglasses, to be called RB after his mother's famous VB brand.
He is not alone, as many young bucks reign supreme as satorial innovators and even mini brands in their own right. Other lil fashion gods include; Suri Cruise, Willow Smith and of course Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon. They seem to be popping up everywhere. This all comes as one of the most popular fashion blogs in circulation is 13 years old US blogger, Tavi Gevinson. She has been a permanent fixture on the front row for some time now and has been in Vogue. Her wacky outfits and precocious musings have won her fans including Karl Lagerfield.
But fair enough, Tavi has her own blog and seemingly no style frenzied parents. As for the others, I can't help but think that surely at that young age any major fashion choices these younglings are making is slightly directed by their parents. Especially young Romeo, with Victoria Beckham as your mum your hardly going to be wandering the streets in Asda's george trackies and a primark sweater.
