The VFS Exhibition



Photography by Lucas Seidenfaden
The exhibition space at Vauxhall Fashion Scout closed yesterday to great acclaim, having displayed the work of 14 designers (including Merit Award winner Leutton Postle and the Ones To Watch designers) for the duration of fashion week. This season has been particularly successful, with buyers from international stores (including Joyce in Hong Kong and Beams in Tokyo), Harrods, Browns, Harvey Nichols, Selfridges and MyWardrobe.com in attendance, alongside press including Grazia and Style Column.

As the exhibition closed the designers were treated to delicious treats from Snog, washed down with cider from Rekorderlig…after all, they deserved it. During our q&a sessions, each designer spoke with enthusiasm about their exhibition experience, and the opportunities that had arisen as a result of their participation.

Next stop Paris….
