It was packed to the gills with hipster girls sporting effortlessly cool bohemian looks that must have taken a couple of hours to throw together and bearded, suspender-wearing boys channeling the late artist Dash Snow.  The A-Listers were all there to support fashion's "Brit" boys: Vanessa Friedman from the Financial Times, T's Sally Singer, Barney's new fashion director Amanda Brooks and the ubiquitous Derek Blasberg were all holding court.  Mad Men's Jon Hamm was there but he went largely unnoticed amid the posturing. The clothes were vibrantly colourful, a mixture of tartans, Blade Runner-like leggings and Teddy Boy-inspired frock coats. In the words of one Vogue editor, "there was a lot going on."
