From Coco Chanel to CoCo Belfast the launch of the Autumn Winter 09 season for West Coast Cooler FASHION WEEK was, as always, a stylish affair.
Kicking off with a screening of Coco Avant Chanel at the QFT followed by drinks and nibbles at Belfast's own CoCo organiser Cathy Martin and the frou frou crew including the Sugahfix gals, of course, as well as our competition winners - enjoyed the relaxed vibe and chilled out on the terrace.
Fashionistas paid homage to Balmain with sequin tailored blazer and dramatic pointed shoulders while a few stripy tops and quilted handbags gave a stylish nod to Chanel.
Floral prints and colour blocking delivered a final flourish for summers trends with a chunky leather biker jacket adding an instant update and taking the look right through the seasons.
The dress was worn short, figure hugging and with dramatic colour.
We're noting more and more black and indigo skinny jeans being worn with statement tops and heels or under dresses - ideal for extra warmth when staying out into the wee small hours.
