London Fashion Week So Far: Mulberry, Burberry and Lots of Star Power

While those of us in our east coast office are still recovering from New York Fashion Week, our British counterparts are busy stylespotting all over London for — you guessed it — London Fashion Week. Here, read up on the latest from the chic shows and star-packed front rows:

Mulberry

Mulberry celebrated another “monster” hit when its latest collection showed at London’s Claridges on Sunday morning. Greeting front row attendees such as Michelle Williams, Elizabeth Olsen and Olivia Palermo were two giant yeti creatures standing guard over the catwalk — and guests’ seats were covered in shaggy goat hide, too.

Inspired by Maurice Sendak’s book Where The Wild Things Are (with English boarding school references tossed in), the collection was a mix of delicate lace and printed dresses teamed with chunky Mongolian fur jackets and shaggy gilets. Models were sporting the latest Mulberry bag, the Del Rey, named after singer Lana Del Rey, who sat front row with her white ostrich leather bespoke edition (and performed at a private dinner later that evening). The show closed playfully with The Muppet Show theme song.

Though stars like Palermo are fashion week veterans, actress Olsen confessed to being a newbie. “This is my first Mulberry show and my second fashion show ever,” she told PEOPLE beforehand. “I have no real reason to go to them. But I’ve heard Mulberry is quirky and fun so this is really exciting!”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: There’s a ‘Right Eyebrow’ for Every Woman

If you’re planning to visit with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley anytime soon, be sure to tweeze your brows first. “That’s my pet peeve, bad eyebrows,” the model tells Modelinia.com. “Messy, badly plucked, thin. There’s a right eyebrow for every woman.”

Along with well-groomed eyebrows, Huntington-Whiteley likes to make her eyes pop with a bit of brown mascara (“I couldn’t live without it,” she insists) and “luminous cream” on her brow bone, to make her face “look a bit more awake.”

But an accessory that really completes her basic beauty look? “Hoop earrings,” she reveals. “They’re always sexy. You can’t go wrong with a pair of hoops.” Hear more of her musts on Modelinia.com. Tell us: What are your makeup must-haves?

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: ‘I Was a Bit of an Ugly Betty’

It’s hard to imagine Transformers star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley as anything but gorgeous, but the model admits she wasn’t always so camera-ready. “I was a bit of an Ugly Betty when I was 15,” she tells Harper’s Bazaar. Instead of working in front of the camera, she was behind the scenes at a modeling agency, “getting coffee, lighting people’s cigarettes,” the Devon, England, native says.

Things obviously changed, and at 18 the stunner moved to New York and landed a deal with Victoria’s Secret, and a few years later, Burberry. “To be 21, working with Mario Testino and Christopher Bailey, it was a milestone moment,” she shares.

Another milestone? Sporting those Victoria’s Secret wings. “I’d love to wear them for a fancy-dress party sometime,” she says. Although it’s not as if they’re at the ready. “People assume I have wings hanging all over my house, but that is not the case,” she jokes. She might wish it was so, though. “People kind of laugh about it and think it’s irrelevant, but I don’t know a girl in the world who would put those wings on and not feel, just for a split second, very special.”

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: Naked to Camera-Ready in Two Hours, Tops

Model-actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is one busy girl — glamming it up for Burberry Body and taking time to shoot ads with Ryan Reynolds, to name a few key tasks — so not surprisingly, she has “a pretty tight beauty regime,” she tells PEOPLE.

Her first secret? She doesn’t go overboard with product. “I don’t like to be worn by makeup or worn by clothes,” she shares. “It’s all about enhancing what you have. I want to feel as close to my natural self as I can at all times. So, unless I’m doing a crazy photo shoot, I want to feel like myself.”

To that end, you’ll rarely find the star wearing lipstick when she’s not in front of the camera. “It’s not my favorite piece of makeup,” she admits. “I don’t [put] anything on my lips … I think it can get a bit much.”

While she is naturally gorgeous, Huntington-Whiteley does require some upkeep. For instance, she’s serious about grooming her eyebrows. “It’s one thing that I always pay close attention to,” she says. And proper haircare is a must. “If you can’t afford to maintain your hair, don’t dye it,” she states.
