caftans. Soon after showcasing he had designers and Vogue knocking at his
studio door. In 2006, the Scotsman won ‘Scottish Fashion Designer of the Year.’

"It's the color;
it's how it lightens you, changes the mood. That's what print can do, that's
what color can do." - Jonathan Saunders
Stuart Vevers
After completion of
university, Stuart went on to work with names such as Marc Jacobs, Louis
Vuitton, Calvin Klein, and Givenchy, later becoming creative director at
Mulberry. Now he sits as creative director at Loewe, Stuart’s ability to create
exquisite leather goods and handbags makes him the perfect fit for Loewe.
There are many French and Italian luxury houses,
but only one Loewe.’ – Stuart Vevers
Matthew Williamson
If you are into bo-ho chic and you don’t know about
Matthew Williamson, you’re certainly missing out. After his sell-out
collaboration with H&M, Matthew’s label took flight. Coming this spring
Williamson is launching his own shoe collection. Get psyched.
Yohji Yamamoto
Yohji is a visionary within the
fashion world. His creativity and understanding of materials surpasses any
designer, each season more dramatic and explosive then the last. Since 1980
Yamamoto has created collections inspired by his Japanese heritage.
“Black
is modest and arrogant at the same time. Black is lazy and easy - but
mysterious. But above all black says this: "I don’t bother you - don’t
bother me"- Yohji Yamamoto
Marco Zanini
Before landing creative director
of Roach, Marco was named head designer at Halston. Since then Marco has taken
the Parisian Fashion house and has made it a household name.
‘The beauty of the house is that
it doesn’t have any specific style or trademarks that people might remember.
It’s nice to worth on the more abstract allure that speaks about the savoir
fair of Paris”- Marco Zanini
