Inspired by our favourite queen of bewitching couture, heiress Daphne Guinness, Duy Nguyen showed a collection made for a woman one part ferocious urban-tribal queen, one part dark and deliciously macabre maven.

Peek-a-boo French lace paneling, leopard cocktail frocks and floor-grazing skirts were worn alongside sharply tailored and artfully draped outerwear and perfectly slouchy trousers. Fur and leopard print dominated the show, with models sporting lace appliqués adorning their face and collarbones to boot⎯definitely a touch that would have been appreciated by Miss Daphne herself.
