London Fashion Week witnessed a dazzling display of innovation and sustainability as Loose Women star Jane Moore turned heads in a striking electric blue dress at the Vin + Omi show in Kensington. The 62-year-old television personality embraced a bold, punk-inspired look, complete with voluminous back-combed hair and shimmering lips, perfectly embodying the designers’ vision of “chaotic sustainability.”
Vin + Omi’s Autumn/Winter 2025 collection, titled KAOS, was a masterclass in reimagining waste as wearable art. The duo, known for their nomadic lifestyle and eco-conscious designs, unveiled a runway filled with garments crafted entirely from recycled materials. From discarded milk cartons sourced from King Charles’ Sandringham estate to broken ceramic plates from The Other House hotel, every piece told a story of transformation and resilience.
“We wanted to challenge the fashion industry’s norms,” Vin explained. “This season, we’ve taken everything we could think of—plastic, wetsuits, even sweet wrappers—and turned them into something beautiful. It’s about showing that sustainability doesn’t have to be boring; it can be chaotic, fun, and utterly inspiring.”
The show was a visual feast, blending high fashion with a raw, almost dystopian edge. Models strutted down the runway in intricately ruffled gowns adorned with cigarette packets and candy wrappers, their faces accessorized with “rubbish” to mirror the duality of social media’s influence. One standout moment featured a pregnant model, due to give birth in just two weeks, confidently showcasing a low-rise midi skirt and crop top emblazoned with the collection’s signature KAOS print.
Adding to the star power, The Great British Bake Off’s Dame Prue Leith, 85, made a triumphant return to the runway, channeling her inner 1980s punk princess in a coat dress made from recycled fabric. “Prue’s addicted to recycling,” Vin joked. “She flew back from Australia just to be here. That’s dedication!”
The collection also made a powerful statement about animal conservation, with X-ray scans of exotic animals printed onto garments, accompanied by the bold text: NOT DEAD YET. This nod to London Fashion Week’s recent ban on exotic skins and fur highlighted the designers’ commitment to ethical fashion.
Accessories were equally innovative, with models wearing medallions crafted from shattered ceramic plates and jewelry made from discarded wetsuits sourced from Team GB, The Royal Navy, and UK surf schools. The show’s soundtrack mirrored the chaotic theme, transitioning from the hopeful tones of The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow to jarring sounds of breaking porcelain, gunshots, and snippets of political speeches, reflecting the unpredictable nature of social media algorithms.
Vin + Omi’s message was clear: fashion can be both sustainable and revolutionary. “We want to change perceptions,” Vin said. “It’s not just about what you wear, but how you choose to wear it. Every fabric has a story, and every piece can make a difference.”
As the show concluded, it was evident that Vin + Omi had not only pushed the boundaries of design but also sparked a conversation about the future of fashion. Their KAOS collection was a bold reminder that sustainability and style can coexist, proving that even in chaos, there’s beauty to be found.
For Jane Moore, Dame Prue Leith, and the pregnant model who stole the show, the night was a celebration of individuality, creativity, and the power of fashion to inspire change. As Omi aptly put it, “Our ideas are meant to be stolen. That’s how we create a movement.”
