A FASHION EVENT FOR YOUR DIARIES...


FaCshion is an independent fashion shopping event set to take London by storm on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 February 2008. Consumers can enjoy a shopping experience and the opportunity to purchase independent collections directly from the designer. Trade buyers can source new collections from established designers and meet new designers that seldom have the budget to exhibit at traditional trade shows.

We are pleased to announce our collaboration with Nolcha Fashion Week: London in a bid to support a global network of emerging fashion designers. Nolcha promotes and supports international fashion on the runway, in seminars and trade networking. With the combination of FaCshion and the private exhibitions and showcases hosted by Nolcha, together we aim to provide a foundation to assist the growth of the designer’s brand at an international level. Yolande Letshou, Nolcha’s Fashion Director, says “FaCshion marks a perfect ending to Nolcha Fashion Week: London as buyers and consumers are invited to view, network and purchase from more independent designers.“

FaCshion would like to welcome some the latest exhibitors; Axiom, innovative women’s wear geared towards strong and sexy women that strive for individuality (awarded Best Couture Designer at UUFA 2007); Vanjo, sexy, funky and retro lingerie label for ladies with bigger busts; including trunks and t-shirts for men; Rock ‘N’ Needle, unique custom rock clothing for men and women adorned with ripped hems and studs; Sourced Clothing, independent boutique representing locally sourced collections for men and women; Only One, lingerie wear; and Piedras, unique handmade jewellery created using semi-precious stones and sterling silver.

We are currently looking for fashion designers from diverse backgrounds to exhibit at FaCshion. Please contact us to check stand availability or visit www.facshion.co.uk for more details. We are also pleased to announce recent media partnerships with Selvedge Magazine, Who’s Jack Magazine and Touch Magazine. Partnership opportunities are still available please send proposals to info@facshion.co.uk.
