Taking to the ramp at this year’s ‘A La Mode’ London Fashion week event will be ultra talented and innovative Tom Lipop, creative head of Lipop London. Brighton bred London based fashion designer Tom debuted his collection ‘Battle of The Sardines’ at Brighton Fashion Week 2009 and is set to wow this year’s fashion collective with his newest creations.Upon completion of a challenging BA Hons degree in Fashion and Textiles (menswear), the Lipop London mastermind went onto successfully participate in Sky One’s ‘Project Catwalk.’ His participation in the show not only showed his resilience in such a demanding and tough environment but displayed his high-level of design competence and his ability and vigour to thrive in the competitive fashion industry. Partaking in ‘Project Catwalk’ equipped Lipop with the skills to fulfil design and pattern cutting roles at Griffin Laundry, House of Holland, Halfpenny London and Nathan Jenden.
It is Lipop’s infatuation with creating contemporary and forward thinking garments inspired heavily by the long historical lineage of British fashion which has been expressed through his own Avant Garde collections. One not to follow trends but to set them, Lipop has innovated a very distinct handwriting using striking illustration, technical cutting, experimenting with new fabrics, and garment construction. Parallel to his own creations, Lipop, who held a senior design position at House of Holland aspires to great designers such as Massimo Osti and Henrik Vibskov; two designers he claims who “push the boundaries of fashion craft with successful, conceptual and aesthetically progressive garments.”
The ‘A La Mode’ Catwalk will take place at the lavish Charing Cross Hotel located on The Strand on Friday 17th September 2010, the first day of one of fashions’ most anticipated event; London Fashion Week 2010.
Attracting press and fashion industry alike, Tom will be presenting his highly awaited collection at the “A La Mode” show from 7.30pm.
