Mr Baartmans and Ms Siegel were shrewd in their venue choice this season, being as it was directly opposite the Hospital Club, the main hub for the menswear shows. A large hangar area, I'd never been to a show there before, and it allowed them to construct a long podium used for the presentation – something like a static travelator, updated with a new model every few minutes.
The clothes were just as luxe as we've come to expect from Baartmans and Siegel. Intricate knits, suits textured with a glistening 'scale' and statement accessories like the humungous pale blue croc-skin bag. The styling may not be to my taste – silk scarves, visors and tucked-in tops scream gay golfing holiday a little too loudly – but there were many individual pieces to lust after. Just need someone to invite me to the Prom so I can wear that powder blue suit...
