Jasper Garvida’s LFW show – more updates

Monday we had posts and tweets a-plenty from the guys we took along to Jasper Garvida’s London Fashion Week Show. Among them were Style Slicker, Fashion Slant, Park & Cube and Diamond Canopy who especially loved the front row seats Miele provided,

“I can’t believe we were given front row, it was amazing. It might never happen again so I definitely didn’t take it for granted. […] I was quite impressed by [Jasper’s] newest collection. I really loved the twenties theme, art deco prints and the make up.”

As you can from the photo; certainly making the most of her prime position.

Vanity Fashionista and Everything Cherry Chan108 have both posted on their experiences too. Vicky of Vanity Fashionista was a competition winner who, although not overly familiar with Jasper’s work, was eager to attend a fashion week show. And now she has, as well as getting her self right up to date with JG’s A/W 2010 collection,

“The collection, the catwalk show, Jasper Garvida was AMAZING! I loved every single one of his pieces.”

There are a selection of pictures from the show in her post, only a slection mind as Vicky did confess to taking a shot of every single outfit! She also managed to snap a picture of Beverly Knight and Liz McClarnon (she also spotted Sophie Anderton). The celeb attendees were also spotted by Cherry of Cherry Chan108 who also took a picture.

Being a fan of Jasper’s work Cherry expected to have a good time, but was surprised by just how much of a good time,

“I feel like everything was on point; the music, the models, their walks, the timing, the atmosphere and I was particularly touched when Jasper came out at the end for his final bow. My first cat walk experience was extremely satisfying.”

We’re really pleased everyone enjoyed it so much . If you’d like to get involved more with Miele and Forever Better, then don’t hesitate to get in touch with Claire [@] ForeverBetter.co.uk.

Jasper Garvida’s LFW show – we were there!

Yes, Forever Better was dressed to impress and in attendance for Jasper Garvida’s London Fashion Week catwalk show. And we were not alone; we’d got bloggers and competition winners with us, all of whom were eager to enjoy the show.

Kit Lee of Style Slicker covered the event and illustrated it with photos (see below) that, dare I say it, challenge the efforts of our very own Roxy .

Twitter saw her herald the day as ‘fantastic’, along with showing off her ‘very handy’ freebie, and she wasn’t alone in getting involved with the micro-blogging. Winnie of Diamondcanopy loved being on the front row with Park and Cube’s Shini, who also tweeted this little gem of an image via twitgoo.

Also with us were Fashion Slant (who noted shoulders are back), Chic in Town and Cherry Chan108, so keep your style hungry eyes in their direction for more of Jasper’s work.

Finally though, I’m going to point you in the direction of the delightful 40 Not Out, who loved the experience – before, during and after,

“Am still high on the Jasper Garvida show. I love fashion. That is all.”

We concur.

Rachel snaps some Jasper Garvida

We’ll be spending a significant amount of time this week on foreverbetter talking about our recent visit to the launch of the Jasper Garvida Spring/Summer 2010 collection at the London Fashion Week. And what better way to begin than with some visual stimulus courtesy of Rachel at the Peacock Feathers & Diamond Rings blog.

Apparently “in the process of uploading my photographs”, Rachel has, in the meantime uploaded a few examples of her favourite day dresses and fashionable high heeled shoes from the collection. Enjoy, and take a look at the rest of the images over here. Keep an eye out too because there is “more to follow later in the week along with more detail regarding Garvida’s inspiration.”
