Joining the familiar fashion faces on the front row were a handful of Roksanda’s VIP friends Joely Richardson, Vanessa Redgrave, Daisy Bevan, Golda Sheuvel and Sophia Nomvete. Originally slated for September 19, the death of Queen Elizabeth II forced IlinÄiÄ to depart the official London Fashion Week schedule for the first time since her 2005 debut, given the Serpentine’s location in a Royal Park. Showing today for first time amid the Frieze week schedule, the guest list was also more heavily art world dominated, with Eva Rothschild, Rana Begum, Tai Shani, Michael Craig-Martin and Hans Ulricht among the arty glitterati sat front row.
