LFW: Meet The 3 Black Designer Who Showed Their AW19 Collections At LFW's Designer Showrooms
If there’s an idea that New York Fashion Week could swipe from London, it's the Designer Showrooms. Located at The Store X, 180 Strand, London Fashion Week's official venue are 50 British and international designers and showrooms with their ready-to-wear or accessories collections. It's one of the smartest ways to combat an overcrowded fashion week schedule and a great alternative to a runway show or presentation for designers who'd prefer the one on one time with industry insiders and vice versa. LFW host the collections for the entire week, giving you days on days on days to build connections with PR reps or the designers themselves. Of course here at Kolor, we're rooting for everybody black, especially those who are chasing their fashion dreams, so we have to introduce you the three black emerging designers we found at LFW Designer Showrooms.
