Christophe Decarnin stuck with a tried and tested approach for his Autumn 2009 line which was shown at Paris Fashion Week yesterday.

Sienna Miller and her sister Savannah showcased their Autumn/Winter 2009 Twenty8Twelve line at London Fashion Week on Sunday, taking the traditional walk down the runway at the end for guests such as Erin O'Connor, Alexa Chung and Skins star Kaya Scodelario who sat next to Alexa in the front row! At PPQ's infinitely more colourful show Alice Dellal, Pixie Geldof and Daisy Lowe modelled clothes for an audience including Nicola Roberts. It wasn't just all girls, though — ex-Skins star Nicholas Hoult (who played Kaya's older brother) was also a fixture at a couple of Sunday's shows, attending the Aquascutum and Jaeger London events.

New York fashion week is well under way for Spring 2009 at Bryant Park. Yesterday, British design duo Preen took to the catwalk (although Justin Thornton attended alone whilst his partner is heavily pregnant) to present their latest collection.

As I showed you earlier, the stars are still swarming the capital for London Fashion Week, with Peaches Geldof leaving her Dad at Luella and heading to the Issa show alongside Blake Wood, Will Young, Jenny Frost, Leah Wood Tamsin Egerton and Daisy Lowe who looked stunning in her orange frock. After the show she took her jacket off and wore the gown on to a party hosted by Stephen Jones, where her fellow guests included Erin O'Connor and Meg Matthews. Sugababe Heidi Range and her man Dave Berry went to the On|Off event looking smart alongside Jodie Kidd and Gok Wan, who was showing off his Chanel arm candy with pride!

As Paris Fashion Week bids us adieu, Marc Jacobs fashioned a feast of a finale. With an eclectic mix of baroque, volume, and — you guessed it — the '80s, Fall's Vuitton babe is divinely decked. This collection was not shy on color; crimson, canary yellow, salmon, and emerald created a robust palette, while nude and black balanced.

No matter what Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci serves up, it's always bound to be ahead of the curve. His latest Fall '09 collection, however, is also simultaneously beautiful, thanks to feather-infested gowns and romantic draping. But it wouldn't be Givenchy if it didn't throw together a mumbo jumbo of anomalies: studs and feathers, sheer and draping, asymmetry and power suits.
