What was your initial reason to be a part of the Paris Showroom?
I thought being part of an
established showroom with a great selection of interesting labels would be a
good way to meet new buyer and press contacts. As a designer doing her first
season I thought VFS would attract buyers and press interested in coming to the
showroom to see the ‘new talent’ and discover new designers not be solely based
on appointments.
