Laura Weir and I are enjoying the wonderful sight of legendary London DJ Princess Julia posing for the photographer while standing on a white tablecloth-covered runway scattered with dinner party crumbs and half drunk red wine; the last supper, but let it be Hackney. We attended the Lueder show on Saturday afternoon at London Fashion Week, Weir’s first time, who joined the British Fashion Council (BFC) as CEO in April this year. I spent a few hours with her and experienced her debut season firsthand.

The show just ended, and it was another creative reinterpretation of the club’s cultural style by Berlin-London designer Marie Lueder. (Princess Julia was one of the selected listeners invited to sit next to the table.) With a capped hoodie, cargo pants and curly toe boots, I thought Lueder was rave-y Rumpelstiltskin in ecstasy, and a news reporter I walked into one, and I walked into a sight. Uber Cool crowds rise to watch it and announce Lueder as part of the “dirty” fashion campaign, which is about to spend a moment in a new exhibition in the city’s Barbican Center Dirty fashion desire and decayopen on September 25. As for the wei, she liked it very much. “It’s like something you see in the woods after a night of revelry,” she said. “Mary is very good at instructions and builds a cultural well.” The atmosphere of the show captures the hard lines of the runway and the streets, and London still does better than any other fashion capital.

“This is my first time on the Lueder show, even though she has been on our Newgen program for two years.” “I heard something great,” Will told me. [about her]. I love that she really borrowed the LRON partnership with Bears. The greatness of Newgen, she went on to say, BFC’s long-term sponsorship and guidance on young design talents and brands that donate to it, “is obviously financially supported, but when you work with a large retailer like Pull & Bear, you also get exposed to a lot of business operations. I really hope this helps the designer set it up for success. We are so grateful for their financial support, and a big part of my future strategy is how we use it to thrive creatively and Build a business that can be maintained. ”

This is Will’s mission now: to speak the language of creativity, craft, culture and commerciality and to bring them together. After a career in the UK Fashion,,,,, es Assistant to magazines and department stores, she intends to be a strong and successful future for London Fashion Week and the British fashion industry, more generally in the construction of the post-Brexit landscape. Not to mention that we are in an era where the industry is in an unprecedented era of strong global groups. What is a young independent designer and how to do it?

Earlier this year, she launched an ambitious, visionary plan for the BFC to revitalize the week, and only in the past few days has her leadership been. Not just going to show since the schedule kicked off Thursday – she’s planning on being at around 39 or so this season – but also the likes of attending a parliamentary debate on London Fashion Week launched by Rosie Wrighting, the Labour MP for Kettering, Northants, who was once a buyer for ASOS, and, just last night, co-hosting a dinner with Jonathan Anderson, who’s re-imagining his JW Anderson label as he commences the Dior’s arduous task.

Currently, we are taking it out of the venue, and that’s the same, like we have to video its hot foot to the Roksanda Show. When we exit, Weil mentioned that Lueder’s show reminded her of another designer, Yaku, whom she saw that morning, designed by Yaku Stapleton. (A year ago, my colleague Sarah Mower urged me to see his work and as always, she was right; it was amazing.) Yaku stood out for Weir because it was a speech, and she said: “It took us a journey that saw his ancestors meet each other, performing in the Age of Origins and in the Modern Times. “For me, it inspired our connection to the wider cultural and creative industries.” I really want to have a partnership with my film and art partners. Dance can be fun for many designers when it comes to costumes. ”

Appropriate enough, the Slap bang bang in the front row of Roksanda is across from Weir, and I fully represent the interdisciplinary dialogue, celebrating the year of Twentieth with Marina Abramović, Joely Richardson, Joely Richardson, Juergen Teller, Lashana Lynch, Stephen Lynch, Stephen Jones and Afua Hirsch to celebrate the concept of Twentieth of the Year/a London concept of London. On the way to Roksanda’s show, Weir and I talked about the feeling of playing such a huge role on BFC.
