Having worked with Fashion Blogger and QVC Presenter Alex Willis-Bray with South West London TV for 6 months or so, I was invited to work on a brand spanking new online TV show just for Men!
Certainly, having covered London Fashion Week and then, in January 2014 London Collections Men, there is a clear lack of fashion presence for Men. Alex and I were more or less the only TV crew filming celebrities, designers and fashionistas just before they headed into the showrooms.
I filmed for 4 episodes at London Collections Men – Mens Fashion Week and at Fara Workshop in Angel, Islington. View series 1 below:
Fara is a place where every piece for sale is completely unique because it is hand made on site. Fabric is donated via their charity shops as they have been operating as a charity for over 20 years to help disadvantaged and vulnerable young people in Romania.
Not only can you buy unique, one-of-a-kind clothing, but you can get hold of homeware and unique illustrations and artwork because they give residencies to emerging fine artists, illustrators and photographers – see the postcard below from artist in resident Dan Jamieson:
They are located on 28-32 Pentonville Road, Angel (1 min from Angle Tube). @TheFaraWorkShop | Facebook | Instagram
