“My collection, and the show itself, is basically a self-portrait. As an artist I have always been a story teller, and I have decided to start telling my own story” – Aitor Throup
“London is the best city at embracing change and new, with so much history it’s really good at approaching the future whilst respecting its rich heritage. I think this is evident with the creative work that comes out of the city.” – Bobby Abley
“London’s the home of character; the heartland of eccentricity and independence. London gave the world Jonny Rotten, Oscar Wilde, Quentin Crisp, Freddie Mercury… In terms of style, it has nothing to prove but keeps on proving itself regardless. It’s the most interesting place in the world.” – Charles Jeffrey
“Our friends and collaborators are in London and our own social scene here helps us keep our work relevant. As our inspiration never comes directly from fashion, being exposed to other creative forms has been a big influence on our work.” – Cottweiler
“I’ve spent almost all my life in London, I was born here. This city is a huge part of who I am and will always inspire me. The diverse energy, the forward-thinking nature of it is unparalleled” – Craig Green
“I grew up in London, so I am proud to be able to present here. London feels like the natural place to explore the space between tradition and modernity.” – Grace Wales Bonner
“London is the best place for menswear at the moment; the sheer diversity, from the heritage of Savile Row to NEWGEN MEN and Fashion East, you go from the beginnings of modern menswear through to the future being presented alongside and supporting one another.” – Liam Hodges
“What I try to do with my shows is create a moment, create ‘a thing’ – something that people will remember. London is the creative capital and there’s no better place to show my collection.” – Oliver Spencer
“London has always been an exceptionally creative and cosmopolitan place. There are more than three hundred languages spoken here, more than anywhere else in the world. It’s a never-ending goldmine of ideas. It would be impossible not to be constantly inspired and influenced living in London.” – Paul Smith.
