super stars

Just as every new kindergarten class loves Dr. Seuss as much as the last, each generation of London fashion students is enamored with the idea of being the next Leigh Bowery. Hence the popularity of SuperSuper magazine, the bible of Britain’s neon-bright young things. Its satellite show venture,
just steps away from London fashion week’s main tent, is a nonstop party of nu-rave cuties and their collections. For last night’s SuperSuper Show, the mag hooked up with MySpace to present the collections of four new London designers—Scott Ramsay Kyle, Thomas Sels, Dharma Taylor, and Emma
Bell—who paid collective homage to club kids past and present. At the joint SuperSuper/Felder Felder after-party, held at Punk, Soho’s confusingly named glam-rock dive, the theme was “grunge de luxe.” Though seemingly oxymoronic, more than a few attendees managed to pulled it off, including
Elle U.K.’s senior fashion editor, Kate Lanphear, whose early Gaultier-inspired stripes and denim vest were an authentic reminder of why youthful cool never looks dated.
