The LFW Daily gets baffled by some fashematics
I know it must be hell doing the seating plan for fashion shows. Especially now that bloggers have to be squeezed into the front row. But something strange has been going on this season with ticket allocations. For certain shows I’ve been in row 2, others it’s relegation to 3, even 4. I’ve also been sent some ‘st’ standing tickets – always, funnily enough, in twos.
So what I want to know is, if you get two standing tickets, does that count as a row 2? And if I’ve been sent two (seated) tickets for the same show, both telling me different seats, can I add them up and end up sitting front row next to Carine Roitfeld?

Report by Katie GreengassGrans and grandads, lock up your husky jackets, outerwear is having a moment. Our old friend the coat does, of course, make up the flavour of winter but this season London designers have played the cover up centre stage.
“Designers are especially concerned with jackets and coats this season,” Harrods’ Fashion and Beauty Director Marigay Mckee told The LFW Daily. “Bombers are the particular favourite along with the military style jackets,” she said.
Burberry based an entire collection around aviator jackets while Charles Anastase layered knitwear on top of overcoats. Daks took the husky and gave it an up to date, eccentric spin via leggings, capes and bonnets from the traditional fabric. Design duo Basso & Brooke weaved Trompe-l’œil goretex anoraks into their ensemble and at Aquascutum Michael Herz transformed tailored jackets into full-length dresses. Meanwhile, at Mens day today [Wed], E Tautz featured the ultimate in deluxe outerwear courtesy a cashmere fit for a prince. Luckily one [HRH Prince Michael] was sitting front row and was seemingly rather taken by it.
