International designers to explore ‘fashion utopia’ during LFW

The show will see emerging fashion designers from 24 countries create fashion installations at the city's Somerset House. The building's west wing will be transformed into a Utopian terrain, designed by Hatty Ellis Coward, where an emerging generation of international designers and curators will present their vision of the future. Over 14 galleries, 13 of which will represent a country, designers will unveil creations on a theme that honors the 500th anniversary of the publication of Thomas More's inspirational text, “Utopia.” There will be one group installation, “Next in Line”, which will feature designers from 11 more nations.
