Graduate Fashion Week (GFW), one of the UK’s most important fashion events, is back for it’s 26^th consecutive year.
The four-day event, whose ambassadors and patrons include Burberry’s Christopher Bailey, Vivienne Westwood and photographer, Nick Knight, showcases the talent of the future at their most unrestricted. Creativity abounds and it’s not just design, the next generation of marketers, photographers, illustrators and creative directors will also exhibit.

Ethnicity, youth culture, politics and historical perspectives are highlighted, while the grooming was executed by GFW’s official makeup sponsor, 3ina.
