If there are still any skeptics out there about the power of
Asian designers, this London Fashion Week (LFW) has come to prove them wrong.
Just looking at the schedules – both the main and the fashion
scout one which is designated for emerging talent – shows you the sheer amount
of Asian-born designers who are making it big and are on the rise to dominate
the fashion soon really soon.
From names who have earned their spot in the main lineup like
Jackie Lee and Eudon Choi – the winner of last year’s Emerging Talent Award at
the Global Fashion Awards in New York – to more recently spotted designers like
Nova Chiu.
On top of that are those who have a bit more excitement around
them. The lucky few who have been billed by those in the know as the ones to watch:
Patrick Li and Yeashin. And these are just the ones showing in the first two
days!
