VFS: Hi Caryn, so what have you seen so far at London Fashion Week?
CF: “I saw Jean Paul yesterday and for me it really set the standard and I thought it was fantastic. Sometimes things just have an energy and you can't intellectualise about why something is just going to fly.”
VFS: And what do you think about Vauxhall Fashion Scout as a platform for emerging designers?
CF: “Well it has just grown every season, Martyn has each time just improved on what was there before so it has just become a respected force and outlet for new design talent and emerging designers. Looking at the schedule, it's packed! I remember when they went and brought over the chinese, they were visionary in that really because they did it about 3 years ago and now of course everybody is looking at them. They have all the factories and merchant class already for them to launch their own fashion houses.”
