Tom Cridland launchesThe Entrepeneur's shirt during London Fashion Week - Sustainable Fashion

Instead of following this unsustainable trend, Tom Cridland, an emerging sustainable fashion brand, decided to dedicate London Fashion Week to the launch of The Entrepreneur’s Shirt.

It’s the brand's first ever buttoned shirt and they back it with that same 30 Year guarantee - they guarantee wardrobe staples to last for 30 Years (repair or replace any damaged item free of charge) in a bid to convince consumers they can “buy less and buy better”.
Available in navy, dove white, pink panther, grey seal, sunset boulevard (pale blue), royal blue and electric blue.  Price £75

Every time someone orders it, they donate 10% of the sale price to the charities DEKI, who help impoverished entrepreneurs in Africa, and Young Enterprise, who provide support for young aspiring British entrepreneurs.

Titled ‘Artist Wonderment’,

designer Jeff Garner was inspired by the fashionable French court of Louis XV where frivolity reigned and egos were high, but turns this pretension around to appreciate the wonderment of an artist.

The quilts came in to their own here as a cosy pink and blue coat with large frilled collar, it wasn’t the case as wherever I lay my hat is my home, rather wherever I lay my coat is my bed –now that’s recycling at its best .

Prophetik at London Fashion Week

Tennessee based Prophetik kicked off the LFW catwalk shows at Vauxhall Fashion Scout, Freemason’s Hall, Covent Garden. And what a kick off!!!

At the beginning we are lulled in to thinking of a carefree southern country theme when violinist Anna Cwad starts playing toe tapping music, with ex-Paramore Jason Bynum joining her on guitar. Then the band Man Raze shatters this illusion with their fusion of punk and pop rock. Not surprising as their drummer is ex-Sex Pistols Paul Cook and their vocals/lead guitar is ex-Def Leppard Phil Collen. And let’s not forget their bass guitarist Simon Laffy from Brit glam rock act band Girl.

With Man Raze raising the tempo, the show began for ethical designer Jeff Garner’s Autumn winter 2010 collection titled “Southern Shores”. His inspiration came from the American Civil War and sees hope and romance alongside strife and uncertainty.

Main colour palette in true Civil War colours were blues, greys with a touch of red.

The menswear saw layering and serious looking ¾ length coats, waistcoats, vintage buttons, riding boots and peace silk neckties.
Garner’s collection is proof that no fashion look has to be harmed in the making of ethical clothing.

Prophetik is a sustainable men’s and womenswear label using environmentally friendly materials such as organic cottons, hemp, flax, Greenspun (recycled bottles) and organic pigment dyes. One of their signature dresses “the Elle” is made from silk and organic cotton that elephants have painted in collaboration with the AEACP (Asian Elephant Art Conservation Project), which helps to raise funds for an elephant sanctuary in Thailand.”
