Michael Morley, Chief Executive of Coutts & Co, commented "Coutts is thrilled to be sponsoring Fashion Forward, showcasing London's status as the hotbed of emerging talent. This sponsorship re-enforces our commitment to the world of contemporary creative industries, where the last few years have seen us enjoy highly successful relationships with fashion designers such as Stella McCartney, Alice Temperley and Oswald Boateng; and sponsorship of Matthew
Williamson's '10 Years in Fashion' retrospective at the Design Museum and most recently Coutts London Jewellery Week. The UK is a world leader at creating new fashion designers and Coutts is determined to support this emerging talent with mentoring schemes, providing business acumen and training, and financial advice to support the next generation."
Lurene Joseph, Group Director of Communications and Marketing at the London Development Agency said, “We are pleased that the London Development Agency's investment in Fashion Forward is helping to support some of London's emerging design talent. We have already seen impressive results from previous Fashion Forward winners like Erdem and Christopher Kane, and it is fantastic that this programme is continuing to help up and coming designers to establish successful businesses, provide jobs and become household names.
