 London fashion fair Pure Spirit is looking out for young design talent and launches Next Generation. Taking place from 13-15th February, two winning designers are offered complimentary stands at Pure Spirit and an additional 14
short-listed designers will be invited to exhibit their collections.
 A judging panel of Britain’s fashion editors will review all Next Generation applications and industry opinion-formers, including leading buyers and designers, before two winners are selected and a further shortlist of fourteen designers are identified. The Next Generation selection process is open to British and international designers of menswear, womenswear and accessories with an original young fashion focus and the ability to prove they are able to deliver volume-led wholesale orders.
“By identifying and nurturing the most talented new designers on the international young fashion stage, Spirit is paving the way for the hottest brands of the future.” said Pure Spirit event director, Samantha Bleasby.
Earlier this year, Pure Spirit announced it partnered with menswear and accessories event Stitch. Hosted at London’s Earls Court Exhibition Centre 16,000 buyers are expected to visit Pure Spirit and parent show Pure London.
