This quintissentially English and quite eccentric fashion show almost looks like a night at the opera. This glamorous catwalk show features designs by John Cavanagh, Owen Hartnell, Charles Creed, Digby Moron, Hardy Amies, Cossack, Mattli and Michael Sherard.

John Cavanagh was an Irish couturier of the 1950s and 1960s. A member of the Incorporated Society of London Fashion Designers, his style has been described as reflecting Parisian chic. He designed the wedding dresses for the Duchess of Kent in 1961 and for Princess Alexandra in 1963. Wikipedia
