Ready to shop designers who are reaching new heights with their one-off collections? Browse my selection of emerging designers.
Fashion Space is dedicated to uniting emerging designers with shoppers looking for one-off, small-scale pieces. I, Lupe Castro, hand-picked each designer featured based on innovative design techniques, craftsmanship and sustainable practices. Through this platform, I offer these new designers exposure to an international scene that is otherwise hard to break into, especially if operating outside of a fashion capital.
The young designers listed here are a global mix ranging from British emerging fashion designers fresh off the London Fashion Week circuit to young talents from the Canary Islands and beyond. I want to offer a fresh point of view, showcasing designers who are the future of fashion. This is why you will find first-time collections from new brands alongside an eponymous label from a fashion rising star or design graduate from Central Saint Martins or London College of Fashion.
My mission is to offer garments that are fashion-forward while maintaining the highest quality and minimal environmental impact. This means that everything that you can browse here is produced in limited quantities while supporting local communities and using eco-friendly materials or upcycled fabrics. By supporting these brands, you are not only investing in a greener future for fashion but in timeless pieces that can become the vintage of tomorrow. Plus, many involved in the production of designer fashion are women. So, help a girl out and help ensure fair wages within the fashion industry with every purchase.
Instead of buying the full collection of each emerging designer, I have curated a selection of garments that I think will stand the test of time. The top-tier design skills employed in making the garments, the transparent design process and the talent of the young artists play a key role in adding value to these items of clothing. What today is a relatively unknown brand name can become a visionary designer label tomorrow, but not without the initial support at the beginning. Invest in fashion and textile design and help emerging designers grow into an established and eponymous brand. And, the best thing? You can play an active role in their success.
