WARDROBE: A few things we like about the European spring collections

1) The fact that Duro Olowu's (London) cultural references were more subtle and not as literal as the Nigeria-influenced graphic print dresses he originally made his name with. Not that we don't love his African prints, we're just glad to know that he won't be a one-trick pony.























2) Miuccia Prada's (Milan) bell bottoms. She wasn't the only designer to show them, but her's were the most wearable and least kitschy.





















3) The clever way Vivienne Westwood (Paris) used her show as a platform for political protest.
