Ldny initiative, it quickly became clear how closely it
reflected our own ethos of better lives, using fashion
to drive change, build a sustainable future and
improve the way we live."

"These young designers have all worked with artisans from around the world to create beautiful pieces whilst also supporting local communities and businesses in those areas. I’m really excited to be supporting the event and seeing all the designers who will be in town. I’m also excited about seeing the merging of UK and US talent, as being from the UK but living in New York, I have a distinct understanding of the two cultures and how they work together."

"Being able to champion the Ldny-Legacy Collection, an initiative that will lead to raising scholarship funds is close to my heart and the work of the British Fashion Council Education Pillar. Anything we can do to support young people to study as our pipeline of future talent for this industry is essential."
Caroline Rush
CEO of the British Fashion Council
