LFW issue: Behind the scenes

The making of our London Fashion Week issue

Stylist's second fashion issue, celebrating all things London Fashion Week, is a very special issue. Not only is it glossy, but it comes with four different covers from our amazing 'me and my muse' fashion shoot. When we weren't rubbing shoulders with some of the most influential designers of the moment - and the muses who inspired them, we were carefully positioning smoke machines in an M3 underpass for our second shoot, featuring minimalist fashion, a key a/w trend. Cover girls Erin O'Connor and Nicola Roberts weren't the only glamour pusses we encountered this week. Five beautiful cats joined the Stylist team for a shoot with a difference - cats dripping in jewels and gems. Yes, really!
