My Week In Fashion: Grazia’s Senior Fashion Editor Shoots The Pre Collections

Welcome to My Week In Fashion! Every Tuesday, Gemma Hayward - Grazia's Senior Fashion Editor - shows us what she's seen, loved and bought. Click through the gallery above to see what she's been loving this week, from her new cat clutch to dining with the lovely Miss Selfridge team…

I have been super busy filling up our next big shopping issue (which is out on the 18th November). I have styled three lovely models in the latest pre-collection trends along with the best of the season’s accessories. It was a freezing cold day and we were shooting most of the story outside but our models were such troopers and did a brilliant job!

Supper clubbers Laura Jackson and Alice Levine (Jacksonandlevine) teamed up with Miss Selfridge to host a dinner and present the brands Christmas collections. Held in a gallery space in Hoxton, we were treated to spicy pumpkin soup, beats and goats curd, followed by succulent roast lamb and finally a lovely lemon posset. It was a fun and beautifully evening.

Finally the day come to shoot all those wonderful jewels I had selected from Bond Street. Security guards turned up with the precious pieces which all had a flora and fauna theme – think shimmering flower rings and sparkling bird necklaces. I worked with a wonderful set designer Ken who is a master in the field of cacti and I cant wait to show you the results!

How sweet, the New Look PR team noticed I am a cat lover and sent me his little treat for Halloween. I wont show my Chalky Cat, I don’t want her to get jealous, but I do love my new bag!
