Yesterday I went down to the Fashion X Showroom & Pop 'In' Boutique in Redchurch Street, E1. I was invited by Deborah Debonaire, the mastermind & designer behind the idea. The concept being to take over a gallery space in Redchurch Street to showcase emerging UK and international design talent during and after London Fashion Week.
Based in the heart of East London, Fashion- X have created a showroom and conceptual pop-in space at the Outside World Gallery, where a series of events will be taking place through to 28th September, as an extension of London Fashion Week.
Founder Deborah Debonair explained the inspiration for Fashion-X to me yesterday as
I went to drop off a DJ NIKKI mixed soundtrack for their Fashion X guerilla fashion show yesterday, have a chat, hang out and drool over the clothes :)
Deborah said “We struck up the idea after listening to the wants of young designers and creative’s who had no money to showcase their work on a big stage. The combination of the current economic climate and the monopolisation of the Fashion week arena by the big name designers make it near impossible for their voices to be heard.”
''Fashion-X aims to offer emerging designers great exposure to the UK market in addition to providing them with a nurturing support network. Our services include everything from look book layout, show styling, press and PR in addition to facilitating introductions to the World’s best Buyers''
