I really love Osman Yousefzadas designs and his collection for for autumn winter 08 was no exception. Osman Yousefzada is really emerging as an up and coming talent after an unusual start to a career in fashion design. Osman originally graduated from Cambridge and became an investment banker before following his heart and retraining in fashion at Central St Martins.

As usual, for Autumn Winter 08, Osman showed a collection of very beautiful clothes. Osman’s unusual designs are inspired by ethnicity and costume of ancient cultures. He seems to have a real flare for drapery and tailoring. His clothes are usually fitted and so are great and very flattering for petites such as myself. I can’t get enough of his striking, timeless and very wearable clothes.

 From his Spring Summer 08 collection I really want this cropped jacket.  An elegant and beautifully tailored timeless piece but something a bit different.
