London Fashion week 2009

In february this year hundreds of designers took the stage at the Natural History Museum, London for the 2009 london fashion week. The event was very successful and saw 307 well known and undiscovered fashion designers. In 1993 the British Fashion council (BFC) launched NEWGEN, a sponsorship scheme to support new fashion designers developing and train up and coming talent. Recipients of the NEWGEN recieve sponsorship each season. Now sponsored by Topshop, the schemes aims to sponsor for three consecutive seasons. Recipients of Exhibition support receive a free stand at the London Fashion Week exhibition.

NEWGEN has helped launch the careers of some of Britain's top designers, including Alexander McQueen, Clements Ribeiro, Matthew Williamson, Julien Macdonald and Sophia Kokosalaki.
