Shall we get the Duchess of Cambridge and Pippa Middleton references out of the way first? Right. Both sisters - long time supporters of the label - will love the Temperley autumn winter 2012 collection but sadly were not there in person to witness it.

They'll wear it because, who wouldn't? It's suitably regal borrowing from Russia's Renaissance period and realised in opulent embroidery and decorative patterns. There's rich gold brocades on cute swing skirts to take you to any number of outings and, as you'd expect from Temperley, a long and pleasing section of floor-length gowns to elegantly grace the front pages. There's even a dress named the Catherine - look four, the gold stitched lace number.
Poppy Delevigne, Pixie Lott, Minnie Driver and Peaches Geldof graced the front row, eyeing up the glittering gowns and dramatic coats and special mention should go to Charlotte Olympia's sky-high (of course) heels.
