In case you haven’t heard, last week was London Fashion Week. And while some of us can only dream of attending the glamorous shows, the closest we can get to our fashion fantasies is through various blogs and Twitter updates.
Meanwhile, Birmingham designer Damian Marquez was invited to showcase his S/S11 collection as a part of LABB Magazine’s London Fashion Week showcase event, “Emerge” which took place on Monday at Hoxton Factory.
The collection is made up of playful tailoring, jersey wear and swimwear. Damian, who launched his design career at Costa Rica Fashion week in 2009, hopes that this new collection will follow in the footsteps of his A/W 2010 range which was quickly snapped up by stylists and magazines internationally
The collection was both designed and produced from Damian’s Harborne shop, while those beautifully airy shots from his S/S11 lookbook (above) are also the work of Birmingham photographer Garazi Gardener.
I once visited Damian’s shop and was amazed by his creativity which is simple and modern! The taste of his fashion sense is good and suitable for the menfolk. I intend going there for him to make some wears for me. Its worth going to!
