Alicia: Somerset House, London

When I stopped Alicia at the entrance to Somerset House, she seemed taken aback that I was asking for a photograph. Not in the 'Little old me? Really? OK!' kind of surprise - the genuine 'But I'm here to work' kind. Whist kids wearing livestock as coats and men in corsets passed me by, I was photographing a girl in simple navy and grey. For me, it's the men's cut, the ribbed knit, the lengthened lapel and those red lips that makes her style superior.

Memento Mori by Hormazd Narielwalla: Marylebone, London

I first met my dear Homie through my friend and flat mate Daniel - two Daniels, two photographers and one roof, go figure. Since moving to London we've explored different parts of the city together as well as challenging and supporting each other creatively, especially during his exhibition in November which was inspired and attended by Diane Pernet. On Thursday evening I was invited to his latest exhibition at Sheridan & co in Marylebone which showcased Nariewalla's three-dimensions skulls as featured on Saatchi.

Nick: Somerset House, London

Fashion week always feels like some kind of twilight zone where digital relationships meet reality, and this season has been no different. Meeting Nick Bain was a particular pleasure, not only to admire his new Ted Baker satchel, but because we'd been tweeting each other for so long without a formal introduction.

For detail shots go to Another Garçon.

Leeanne: Somerset House, London

I had some trepidation when the first Versace for H&M collection was released. Although I enjoy many of the pieces, particularly the tropical & vibrant prints, I thought that mass producing such recognisable prints would create a 'wear it once' attitude. Either that or I'd be wishing people would only wear it once.

Although Leeanne paired up a couple of the items from the same collection, usually something I'm not drawn to in personal style, I feel she captured the vibe of 'British girl does Versace high street' quite well. However, I must add that by Day 6 of London Fashion Week I was sick of seeing the designs.

Ella: Somerset House, London

I've been seeing many people with multiple layers recently. On the outside a big overcoat and underneath two or three scarves, wraps or cardigans. Mixing a variety of knits, weaves & prints reminds me of the early Rei Kawakubo collections inspired by homeless bag women in New York.

Matteo: Strand, London

Today was menswear day at London Fashion Week and for me, it's like saving the best 'til last. This is not only due to the shows and presentations (a fantasy shopping experience) but also for the unparalleled street style. For my visual diary of the day click here at Another Garçon.

Matteo was one of the best dressed gents at Fashion Week and I'd say 80% of that is due to his bowler hat and moustache - perfect accessories. For full details of the look click here.

Niall and Jason: Somerset House, London

Meeting new people is one of the main drivers in street style photography for me, there's something irreplaceable about finding a spark with someone you've just happened upon in public. Having said that, what can be even nicer, particularly in a big city like London, is bumping into old friends. Supporting William Chambers at London Fashion Week, I bumped into fellow Scots Niall & Jason as they made their way back from a slap-up birthday meal at Sketch. Boys with good taste in dining and apparel.

Ataman: Somerset House, London

This is my third year of attending Fashion Week in London and although still in my infancy, I feel like I've pretty much got the score. Less time is wasted in searching for venues, I know which backstreets will provide the best style and it's a chance to catch up with the fascinating people you don't see between seasons.

As with Ailie, when I saw Ataman I knew I'd seen his face before and I was right. It turns out I photographed the Turkish native last July in Paris at the menswear shows. I may misplace a face in my memory bank but I never forget a meaningful interaction.

Ailie: Somerset House, London

Doing street photography, I interact with so many new people that it's often difficult to put names, faces and places together. I spotted Ailie at Somerset House and all I could think was "I know that girl is Scottish!". Slowly the memories came back and I recalled seeing her from a Channel 4 styling competition televised last year. Ailie wasn't the winner but that hasn't stopped her success as she's now assistant to Alexis Knox and Fashion Coordinator at Notion Magazine. Hard work always pays off.

Emily: Somerset House, London

Another season has rolled around and the first day of London Fashion Week is in full swing. After the pre-parties (and pre-pre parties) a few guests are looking a little worse for wear, but the styling is always impeccable.

Today, Emily appeared as the star of the show surrounded by photographers and journalists wanting to know who made that black coat. I never did find out.

Tara: Grassmarket, Edinburgh

Tara Nowy is the latest subject of my Superior Interior project: looking at style beyond the street. Having looked at the wardrobe of fashion blogger Imogen Roy and the stylish stories of author Varda Ducovny, this time I'm taking a different approach.

Taras father is a musician and has a deep passion for music, resulting in an unusual home-away-from-home: Avalanche Records. The Independent Edinburgh record store, located on Grassmarket, is a haven for inspiration to feed her music addiction.
