This year marks London Fashion Week¹s 25th anniversary. What were you up to
25 years ago? “I remember starting school, very nervous about being left there on my own, surrounded by all these strange faces.”

Over the last 25 years, London has built a reputation for outstandingly original fashion. What is it about the capital that makes London fashion so unique? “London is the centre of many things: its history is pivotal to the development of the modern world and its commercial history means it has been a melting pot of cultures and people for a very long time, probably longer than anywhere else. This mix of cultures and people make for a very exciting and exuberant place.
Research and new ideas are easy here: everything is so accessible. London is simply the best place for developing and creating.”
