House of Holland, Louise Gray, JJ Hudson, aka Noki and David Saunders from David David. With support from Topshop the group show will be held once again at The Old Trumen Brewery. After launching big name talents like Hussein Chalayan, Clements Ribeiro, Preen, Matthew Williamson, and Maria Chen, the Brewery established sponsorship relationships that acknowledged the need to support the youngest-stage designers. It's all the brainchild of Fashion East director Lulu Kennedy.

Some of these names include Blaak, Jonathan Saunders, Marios Schwab, House of Jazz, Emma Cook, Husam el Odeh and Richard Nicoll just to name a few. □
