Designer of the Day

Simone Williams

According to WWD today they say London fashion week is a hard sell. London is known for it's Radical Fashion statements. Hence Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen and Hussein Chalayan. I also believe they do not care about what the rest of the world wears unless you dare to be different. This is he ideal of the new Brit les jeunes creator.

I am scared the world will one day conform and dare to be different. What will the avant guard stylish do then! The fashion world is worried about designers really selling in London. With this up coming Fashion week London we will just have to wait and see. As well as give big ups to the likes of Top Shop for it's continued work with les jeunes creator. Only worries now what will my favorite disposable fashion retailer do without their mews.

Another shout out goes to Colin McDowell, founder and creative director of Fashion Fringe. McDowell founded Fashion Fringe. Each year, the winner gets a 100,000 pound ($196,000) prize as well as business advice and connections. Since Fashion Fringe began, McDowell has hooked up winners with such companies as Italian manufacturer Aeffe.
