If you follow me on twitter, you will know that one of the things i want to start doing on this blog, is creating a forum/opportunity where upcoming/emerging fashion & arts brands/individuals can showcase their talent.
The LABELS are a group of 20-25 year old recent graduates in the fashion, textile and fashion marketing world who showcased their 2012 collections pre- London Fashion Week in 2011.
The designer’s range from a variety of backgrounds, cultures and economic situations from the regions of East and North London. Many of which have started creating their own fashion brands and are becoming independent retailers even in this difficult climate.
The event was organised by two emerging designers Sylvia Fumudoh and Schenell Stephens who collaborated together with 5 recent graduates to put on the Labels catwalk show. The LABELS is now a three part collective now including Marsha Bigby together they wish to provide emerging British design talent the best platform to showcase their collections in the aim of gaining industry exposure to kick start their careers and brands within the competitive fashion industry. The LABELS fashion showcase will now be an annual event.
After holding a successful event in 2011, The LABELS team are back and will be holding this year's event on September 1st at 4th floor studios in East London, showcasing the following emerging designers
