Over Greater London Fashion Full week, passers-by at Dover Street Market stopped dead to marvel at the inside-and out perfectionism of a couple of pieces of his springtime selection which were hanging on a rail. It was like checking out 3-D free-hand white and black life sketches captured in air.There were actually price-tags, yes, but this was the contrary of a see-now-buy-now condition.
