Welcome to the HERO SS15 daily roundup – the most important shows, themes and concepts, contextually curated for your reading pleasure. The best place to understand the week’s events in fashion.

Designers get a maximum of three seasons in Fashion East and Topman’s MAN initiative, voted for by an industry panel. This season, SS15, marked the first solo outing of its latest graduate, Craig Green. How did it go? Well, he produced a collection so stirring it moved several audience members to tears. Those that didn’t moisten the Kleenex felt pretty choked too, as models walked to Enya (not as Magic FM as it sounds) barefoot in layers that danced the breeze, done up and undone. The show was described as a “mass exodus lead by Bannermen towards the brink of abandon… cult become community… a journey towards freedom.”
Its flat-pack garment concept, transforming from restrictive to flyaway, hit a chord with our restless spirits alright, especially in vivid cerulean. Like the designer over the past three seasons, these clothes soared, underpinned by the handy Londoner’s depth of research, love of process and belief in craft. Doubt the power of fashion at your peril, a moment like this is the reason we do our job, far more epic than just clothes.

Craig Green SS15: Look 19

After a stop at Tom Ford, where the designer talked us through 35 looks in three and a half minutes – the highlights being fringed suede jackets and blue jeans, so refreshing after looking at everything but for a couple of days – Christopher Bailey engineered an experience all his own.

In Kensington Gardens the walls of the huge, temporary Burberry marquee were strewn as English musician Benjamin Clementine sang live and bookish models under felted bucket hats walked by in vivid colour. Entitled Book Covers & Bruce Chatwin, bags; outerwear and t-shirts featured original illustrations and typographic prints taking their lead from vintage English tomes and the travel writer. The artworks were designed and painted in-house before being printed onto cashmere, cotton and leather.

A moment away from yourself, beyond limit, was the order of the day. We could all do with that. Check out our roundups of LC:M days one and two, plus Milan and Paris.
