From Runway To Reality: AW20

Coming from a working-class background, I have never owned anything from a luxury fashion house. One bag from Dior would cost me two months rent. For years I thought this separated me from the world of fashion, like the clothes we see on the highstreet are from a separate, disconnected world. As you might predict, I was wrong. Whether you shop at Prada or Pretty Little Thing, Tom Ford or Topshop, the clothes you wear, the trends you adopt are born on the runway.

Here, I will be taking the trends seen in the latest high-fashion collections and showing you where you can find affordable alternatives.
