London Calling - London's last men's day as it is. June sees an exciting full weekend of menswear coming up. For more information - click here

Yesterday was another day of new discoveries and older brands doing what they do best - offering us ranges of breadth and depth with that all so important British sense of humour and style.

He are the trends TheChicGeek thought noteworthy from the day;

Colour and Pattern - We look to designers for something different. Something we can't get anywhere else, almost wearable art. Designers such as Agi & Sam, Matthew Miller and Kit Neale went to town with humourous pattern and colour.

Flight/Bomber Jackets - Martine Rose turned hers inside out to reveal the shiny orange lining, Christopher Shannon gave us his signature logoed sports take and Lou Dalton went for a wartime romance.

Checks - It's hard to see a check and not think Burberry, but we suppose that's the power of their brand. But it doesn't mean they have the monopoly. E-Tautz went raglan sleeved and bold, Agi & Sam heated it up with orange and Christopher Shannon went monochrome.

Footwear Collaborations - Designers turned to experts in footwear combining their fresh eye with the masters of shoe fabrication.
