As London Fashion Week comes to a close, did any brands make any kind of impact on you? Interesting to see that Burberry is bringing the “vintage house check” proudly back to the catwalks, bullishly shrugging off the media fixation on its appropriation by footie hooligans and the like, attention the brand considers “snobbish”. Also lovely to read that the brand decorated the venue in beige which it re-christened “trench”. A small prize to the first reader who can tell us which famous song was inspired by a Burberry mac.

Not at fashion week but in the same vein comes the limited edition Vivienne Tam HP laptop. While “designer decorated” editions are becoming commonplace, this one has a neat twist – it’s being marketed as the first digital clutch. What a neat idea.
