'10 of London's Top Young' Fashion Creatives'

As you may have already gathered from reading other posts on my blog, I am extremely passionate in hearing about the freshest undiscovered up coming design talent to hit the scene, therefore when I heard my phone buzz at precisely 06.01 in the morning updating me with my complimentary daily email newsletter from The Business of Fashion i was particularly intrigued by the subject heading; '10 of London's Top Young Fashion Creatives'.

The article demonstrates how London is a hub of creative talent, showcasing a wide and vibrant community of designers, stylists photographers, hair and make up artists, art directors and other fashion creatives (the list could go on forever). It celebrated how top tier design institutes and numerous support schemes across the UK help to support, nurture and establish these young entrepreneurs and BoF managed to speak to some of these rising talents to discover how hard work and determination has got them where they are today.

One of the 10 young flourishing creatives which particularly caught my attention was Matthew Josephs, a stylist from Finsbury Park who first realised his admiration for fashion at just the young age of thirteen! when he noticed John Galliano's AW'03 collection for Dior.

Matthew explains how he went to Central Saint Martins to study womenswear, but soon realised it wasn't the clothes he loved making, but instead creating the powerful looks.

Today Matthew has styled for a long list of renowned publications including i-D, GQ, Style, Vogue as well as consulting for young up-coming designers including Meadham Kirchhoff and Nasir Mazhar.

I highly recommend reading this article of these 10 talented individuals it is both inspiring and motivating! Read the full article here.
