This week has been so chock-full with fashion happenings anyone would think spring had really kicked into action. Oh wait, it HAS! From the sunshine spells that have prompted us to get our S/S 16 on, through to two of the biggest A-list fashion launches arriving within mere hours of each other, there's much to catch up on if you've been in back-to-back meetings or permanently sans wifi.
