There weren’t any to be seen on their autumn / fall 2011 catwalk, but Burberry Prorsum’s influence upon elements of punk fashion becoming mainstream for spring 2011 certainly meant that there were many punk ‘motifs’ to be spotted in the crowd. Taking a look around it seemed that for every chap in a trench coat there was someone else in a piece embellished with studs. Yet no matter how dense those embellishments were (Burberry’s biker jacket ought to give you a fair idea) this young lady took it to another extreme, and potentially right into another sub-culture (if it’s fair to note such things in this era of fashion).

Pairing the spiked leather jacket with a layered tulle skirt, this look was snapped by Phil Oh at the steps of the Albert Memorial in London’s Kensington Gardens.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
