Boy oh boy was Monday all about the boys. As you know, I am your girl on the ground at London's Graduate Fashion Week, which is going on right now and gives British design students a chance to show off their skills. As usual, the bulk of collections that floated down the runway were for women. But somehow between all the floating chiffon dresses, ultra neon tights and cropped leather jackets, the menswear collections emerged triumphant.

See, I sorta wish that was just a witty play on words. But fringes - and lots of them - were the detail of the day at the opening of Graduate Fashion Week. Leather fringes, straw fringes, cotton fringes, multi-colored fringes and beyond paraded down the runway on the first day of the event, which started on Sunday and ends to today. I am your girl in London for the week, as I check out the good, the bad and the fugly at what has become the largest event to promote student fashion designers across Europe.

Best trends forever: London Graduate Fashion Week

It was a hit parade of the hautest spring trends the other night at London's Punk night club. Tightly belted waists? Check! Over-sized vintage clutch? Check! Pretty floral prints? Triple check! There was all this and more as fashion students from London's various colleges came out to celebrate.

The impromptu runway show was just a preview of why the students were partying in the first place: Graduate Fashion Week. Never heard of it? Well, it's been a must-see for the international fashion industry since 1991, has launched the careers of fashion rock stars like Stella McCartney and hosted concerts by top-notch performers like Madonna and Justin Timberlake.
