Round London is please to announce the new collaboration with Homemade London to come up with a series of workshops.  These workshops are aimed at those who want to breathe new life into special items of clothing that they no longer wear but can’t bear to throw away because they love them too much.  We’ll cover everything from techniques for quick fix-ups to how to do a complete redesign.

Yesterday saw the launch of the very first Fishtank Festival at the Rag Factory off Brick Lane.  The Fishtank Festival is a one-day arts festival, bringing together a wide range of artists and musicians. Expect 7 bands, 4 acoustic musicians, DJs, no less than 15 artists (photographers, painters and installation artists), an 8-man breakdance competition, an 8-woman burlesque show, a fashion show by ethical designers, talks by 6 acclaimed entrepreneurs, short films, one master magician and plenty of other other amazing goings-on, all packed into four rooms for nine hours.

The day started off as very manic backstage trying to get all the models ready for the mini catwalk show organized by Nu Magazine.  Round London was there to help dress the models and to find out the reaction to its brand new collection.  Luckily the show went smoothly, with the except of one of the model’s shoes heel falling off, oops!  The preview on the catwalk of Round London’s new collection went down well and our very supportive friend Suki for snapping up pre-order voucher from the new collection as a gift to a friend.  The evening ended with one to many champagnes and not enough food…it was straight home to bed for the crew!

Round London’s been asked by the Posh Swap blogger to take our East London creations West side!  This will be the first ever Posh Swap Clothes Party in Chiswick on 17th September.  There will be lots to do besides swapping with a free glass of wine and a mini manicure or neck and shoulder massage.

This August, in the run up to London Fashion Week, Round London will not only bring you the usual delicious ‘one off’ pieces that you “need”, but a plethora of up and coming designers and creators of all things designed for your surroundings too.

The day went well with nice music from my good friends, Matty J & Ben Terry (TIRK) and guest Neil Terry.  Weather was good enough for the BBQ to take place on the roof terrace and lot of cocktails consumed.

Round London new brooches were quickly snapped up by friends…
