LONDON show ROOMS takes London’s brightest stars of British fashion to Los Angeles for the second time this March, building on the success of LONDON show ROOMS in Paris and New York. This initiative aims to develop the profile and business opportunities for these designers in international markets. West Coast buyers, stylists and press will have the opportunity to meet designers and view the collections in a unique environment.
“Following an overwhelming response last October, we’re delighted to be returning to LA. The participating designers and the standout collections that they showcased on the London catwalk last month will be available to view during one-to-one appointments. We aim to further develop their profile on the west coast through media coverage and build their relationships with press, stylists and retailers.” - Caroline Rush, CEO, BFC
