FAULT Reviews – Casely Hayford SS16
With references crossing motorsport, the 1960s and Asian art, everything was splashed with the Casely-Hayford touch of cool. To a soundtrack of hip hop and grime classics, the models swagged out in layered looks of loose-fitting, knee-length coats, oversized t-shirts and trousers cut slightly above the ankle.
Prints ranges from grained checks, to a busy botanical design to a…
FAULT Reviews – Lee Roach SS16

Design signatures such as minimalism and strap fastenings were as expected at Lee Roach’s spring/summer 16 presentation, held in the former Central Saint Martins building. Under the 19th century building’s circular room with arched entrances and glass dome roof stood juxtaposing rows of white mannequins on mirrored platforms standing rigid…
FAULT reviews PRIMAVERA SOUND Festival2015
The first thing LXN had to get to grips with when heading to Barcelona’s Primavera was the rather un-British concept of time. When a Brit fest is clearing the main stage, Parc Del Forum is merely getting going and if you aren’t heading back to your digs in the morning light, then you aren’t doing something right.
It is a little crazy how a concrete car park, gravelly seafront and giant solar…
FAULT Magazine Reviews Covent Garden’s – Thai Square Spa
Before I comment on my experience at the Thai Square Spa, it is only right that I point out that I have just returned from Asia where I experienced a whole host of “authentic” face massages, scrubs and peels, ranging from the soothing to the downright scary. It’s not that I’m used to being pampered or an expert on the practice, but I am very used to being under a lot of pressure, stressed and…

FAULT REVIEWS: UNKNOWN FESTIVAL
We couldn’t find a better festival to end the season than Croatia’s UNKOWN Festival. It is a truly unique experience with an unbelievable amount of activities to participate in and to make the whole experience better, it’s on a beach! As far as foreign festivals go, this one’s easy to get to from the UK flying direct to the nearest town Rovinj with organised coaches collecting you…
FAULT Reviews: Beacons Festival
To the surprise of most Londoners, BEACONS Festival is incredibly quick and direct to get to. Set in the Yorkshire Dales, BEACONS is approximately a 3 hour train journey from Kings Cross and, unlike other festival commutes, you actually get a seat on the train. Arriving in Skipton was a breath of fresh air, with beautiful scenery and welcoming locals aplenty. So welcoming, in fact, that two…
FAULT Reviews: Latitude Festival ’14
Latitude was recently described as a festival for the middle aged and middle-class. As a regular attendee since my teens, this writer would care to disagree.
Main Stage/ Latitude '14
The festival takes place in picturesque fields protected by sky-scraping forests in Suffolk, East England. It is obvious that the older generations outweigh the younger but it by no means clashes. Instead there…
