purses England with Pictures
As of 2009, British fashion entails British fashion designers such as
Burberry, Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Stella McCartney and other
designers. British music and British culture heavily influence the fashions in
England. Some looks include the punk look inspired through punk music with plaid
kilts, chains, safety pins and combat boots and the more elegant tweed horseback
riding outfit (jodhpurs, shirt, vest, jacket and riding boots). Other looks may
include a tailored suit from London's Saville Row for men or the ubiquitous
trenchcoat, umbrella and rain boots, made popular by Burberry due to the
constant rainy weather in England.
Music and British FashionMusic has influenced the British fashion trends
throughout the decades, from the Beatles to The Sex Pistols to Amy Winehouse.
Vivienne Westwood contributed to the punk movement of the late 1970s and 1980s
in conjunction with the famed punk band, The Sex Pistols. Westwood's designs are
heavily influenced by the Elizabethan Age utilizing corsets and the orb,
referencing England's royals. Stella McCartney, daughter of the Beatles' Sir
Paul McCartney, has a fashion line under her own name, which she started in
2001. Her designs are very tailored and cutting edge and are worn by celebrities
like Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow.

has been an influence with its checks and classic trench coats for those rainy
English days. Rain boots also are popular due to the very wet weather. Saville
Row is a famous street in MayFair, London lined with traditional men's
tailoring. Other classic brands include Pringle of Scotland, who specialize in

Stella McCartney designed for Chloe from 1997 to 2001. Previous to McCartney,
French fashion house Chloe was headed by the multitalented Karl Lagerfeld (also

making the fashion house popular among the trendy, hip crowd.
