London Alternative Fashion Week ‘09

Posted by Ari on April 20, 2009 | No Comments

If you’re in London remember to pop by Alternative Fashion Week, which is being held in Spitalfields from today 20 April until Friday 24 April.

This is a top place for seeing what young designers from all over the world are doing. I’ve been told it’s more vibrant and edgier than London Fashion Week.. It’s billed as a ’stepping stone between graduate shows and the mainstream fashion industry’. It’s my first time going to Alternative Fashion Week so I don’t know what to expect. I’ll keep you updated!

Another reason why I find it interesting is their emphasis on ethical and sustainable fashion. There was no shortage of this at London Fashion Week AW ‘09 (see Esthetica). However, it’s encouraging to see how fast the emphasis is shifting in favour of sustainability.

We’ll be around in Spitalfields over the next few days. Get in touch if you want to meet – or tap us on the shoulder if you recognize one of us from our profiles.
