Season VII was a blast, London Fashion Week met The London Design Festival as Untold popped up at the Design Museum, the views of the Thames provided the perfect backdrop as the Fashion Bus pulled up to host the Pandoras Box of creative finds.
The catwalk show was emotional, three years to the date Untold first burst onto the scene, we found ourselves in the Design Museum Space ready to showcase collections from six designers from the UK and further afield.. One of my favourite pics from the day is the fantastic routemaster with Vicky Scotts amazing cupcake illustration!
