Fashion Scout opens AW15 applications

London-based emerging designer initiative Fashion Scout has opened its applications for its Autumn/Winter 2015

London and Paris showcases.

Fashion Scout are looking for the “very best in upcoming fashion talent” and are asking for emerging fashion designers looking to make their mark on the international fashion scene to apply to show their collections as catwalk shows, presentations or part of its exhibition platform.

In addition, the designer initiative, which will take place from February 20-24 at the Freemasons' Hall in Covent Garden during London Fashion Week, is asking designers to apply for its Merit Award and Ones to Watch Award, which has helped launch the careers of designers including David Koma, Eudon Choi, Georgia Harding, and most recently Xiao Li.

Applications are open until Nov 7, with designers then being selected by a panel of industry experts featuring leading buyers, media and business advisors.
