The Twitterverse has spoken and LFWs autumn/winter 2013 show season was its most successful ever.
There was an 81% increase in the volume of tweets about the shows from the season in September and, with ELLE UKs editors providing the first look from shows from to direct from the front row, its little wonder that we saw an increase of more than 30% in our interactions with you, our readers.
The catwalks wrested control back from the front rows, with 18,553 tweets about the models comparing with just 9,418 about celebrities in the front rows. Needless to say, Cara Delevingne grabbed the largest share of that, with a phenomenal 18,553 tweets being sent about her over the five-day week, totally eclipsing the most tweeted-about front row celebrity 1Ds Louis Tomlinson, who earned the honour despite attending only one show.
, and were the three most tweeted about brands. And, while its only natural that the lions share of tweets came from the UK at 57%, second in line was the USA at 15% - clearly underlining the significance of the British fashion industry on the international stage.
ELLEs editor-in-chief Lorraine Candy is unsurprised by the findings, noting the brilliance of social media in demystifying fashion and making it more real.
The report, of course, wouldnt be complete without a nod to ELLE's March cover star Victoria Beckham. She may show in New York rather than London, but she ruled the #NYFW catwalk garnering more tweets than the next two biggest shows combined.
