Giles Deacon, the new London wunderkind designer, has a penchant for top models to show his avantgarde luxe ready-to-wear collections. For the second time around, Linda Evangelista opened the show, who this time was joined by fellow top models Karen Elson and Stella Tennant.

On show were sumptious dresses in futuristic shapes in shades of white, pearl and muted tones. Beautiful chiffon gowns with featherweight hems swished on the star-studded catwalk, which included Donatella Versace.

Giles signature bow tie came re-worked in exquisite white shirts, the staple piece of his collection.
