Small designers are trailblazers. They create work in the spaces that big brands are leaving behind. In fact, these small creatives are more ahead of the curve than many major designers today. As they build their brand/design identity, they experiment and develop worlds with their pieces. I have collected seven looks that stood out to me this past week by small brands and fashion students. They can be found through the @ on instagram. Find this and more on the substack in bio<3 #smalldesigner #fashion #runway #art #designer

On 16 July, @bawwlcf presented its Graduation Show at London College of Fashion, where 43 graduating students showcased collections that expressed their personal identities through critical design, technical skill, and storytelling. From a collection inspired by the quiet landscapes of a coastal hometown to a contemporary reinterpretation of a 20th-century literary work, each designer transformed personal narratives and perspectives into thoughtful, innovative fashion. This year’s show stood out not only for the strength of its concepts, but also for the craftsmanship and attention to detail demonstrated in each collection. Congratulations to the Class of 2026. A2Z looks forward to seeing you become the next generation of fashion designers and shape the future of fashion. Words by Julie Jeong Edited by Josephine Jiang Next-Level Fashion, Daily.

A few of my favourite fashion illustrations over the years 🤍 🪻Dior - the Rose Bagatelle jewellery collection. I loved experimenting with a fun colour palette for this one! 🪻Ben Stone’s incredible rose petal dress. Literally was in awe of his work and just had to paint this! 🪻 Simone Rocha jewellery - I did this on a fab @qbcentre course led by the amazing @joannalayla 🪻 Schiaparelli Scorpio Sisters - fell in love with @danielroseberry ‘s Scorpion Sisters and was lucky enough to see this one’s twin at the @vamuseum exhibition 🪻 Prada Saffiano bag - had some fun with a palette knife creating textures 🪻 Kent and Curwen - illustrated this as part of the @bleur_art gallery London Fashion Week exhibition and was featured in the Atelier wall. I want this dress! 🪻 JW Anderson - I love using water soluble charcoal as it blends into the ink and creates some lovely textures 🪻 Schiaparelli - always obsessed with the dramatic-ness of Schiaparelli jewellery. 🪻 Harris Reed’s SS26 collection was a joy to watch, so much creativity and wonderfulness. This was also displayed at Bleur Gallery for LFW 🪻 Etro - an inky black and white one of their printed coat, a bit messy but I quite like it. 🪻 Chanel’s Denim makeup collection - I came across a wonderful article in @elleuk magazine and found the campaign for this collection super cool. 🪻 Tulasi - attended the opening night of her boutique over LFW and got to see this fabulous fur overcoat in real life! 🪻 Illustrated my vision for this print on a winter wrap coat. I had fallen in love with WGSN & Coloro’s Transformative Teal colour of the year 🪻 Tulasi mirror boots from the SS26 collection - so cool! 🪻 Area - a quick charcoal sketch whilst watching one of their runway shows on YouTube 🪻 Patrick McDowell - The Lancashire Rose was such a stunning collection and I was in floral heaven with this one!

Final Major Project: Ben Stone @ben_.stone @lcflondon_ The following collection showcases the tension between industrial labour and organic fragilitv. Drawing from the personal story of my Nan, both a flower trader at Covent Carden Market and one of the first female HGV drivers in the UK. The work examines the coexistence of softness and strength within working-class identity. Floral trade and freight transport become polarising metaphors: one associated with delicacy, care, and ephemerality, the other with endurance, machinery, and physical control. Industrial ratchet straps are used as symbolic material anchors within the collection. Designed to compress, secure, and restrain, they are deconstructed and transformed into softer, fringe-like structures that challenge their original authority. This act of material disruption mirrors the contradiction embedded within the narrative itself-between tenderness and resilience, domesticity and labour, femininity and industrial power. Through slow material processes and behavioural transformation, the garments reject the disposability of contemporary women's workwear and instead propose clothing that carries memory, labour, and care within its structure.

The Guests of Home Turf Presents: In Conversation with Ashton Jones-Frame, Naz Hamdi & Ben Stone, presented tonight at London College of Fashion, UAL.

Home Turf is a new exhibition co-created with young men from East London and LCF students, using football and fashion as a starting point for deeper conversations around identity, masculinity and self-expression. Many young men, particularly working-class and Black men, continue to navigate spaces where their stories are overlooked or misrepresented, with limited opportunities to be seen and heard on their own terms. Delivered by LCF’s Portal Centre for Social Impact in partnership with Ashton Jones-Frame, Home Turf opens up those conversations, challenging narrow perceptions of masculinity and offering a more honest, personal perspective. Home Turf is programmed as part of The Music is Black Festival, an East Bank-wide programme of events, performances, dance and screenings taking place across Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park from April to November 2026, celebrating the V&A East Museum’s inaugural exhibition, The Music is Black: A British Story. Visitors can also explore Resonant Matter, running alongside Home Turf, which examines the spaces and scenes where music, fashion and community come together. 🗓️: Weds 13 May - Sun 14 June 2026 📍: London College of Fashion, East Bank Located in the Mezzanine space ⏰: Tuesday - Saturday 10am - 5pm 🎟️: Free | Open to the public Visit the link in bio to learn more about the exhibition and book free tickets ⬆️ Curated by: @ashtonjonesframe 📸: Eddie Zhang @eddiezhangzqc and Eva Quartey @lenz.e_photography 1.

The original concept was created, commissioned and styled by the incredible @EdieLibertyRose The 1960s oriented piece was inspired by the singer’s personal style and featured a full graphic print by @JacklKaplan, another Asthetik Magazine spotlighted creative, paying homage to how Johnny Carson shaped “late-night television and the cultural legacy of The Tonight Show,” writes Stone. @BAWWLCF @LCFFDD @JIMMYFALLON @SIENNASPIRO @JACKLKAPLAN #FASHIONDESIGN #FASHIONDESIGNER #FASHIONSTUDENT #ASTHETIKMAGAZINE #JIMMYFALLON #FALLONTONIGHT #LATENIGHTTV #SIENNASPIRO #LCF #LONDONCOLLEGEOFFASHION #UAL #ALUMNI #EXPLOREPAGE #FYP #MUSIC #MUSICIAN #SINGER #STYLING #GRAPHIC #PRINT #NEWYORKCITYPHOTOGRAPHY #HISTORY #NEWS

@BAWWLCF student @Ben_.Stone has crafted a ball gown, incorporating 3,432 hand sewn, and painted, rose petals onto silk crepe de chine. With help from his grandmother, who joined him in painting the rose petals jet-black, the dress was brought to life. Only a single red rose petal was placed on the bust, adding a striking contrast against the otherwise black design. It caught our eye and it should catch yours too 🥀 @BAFCSM @BEN_.STONE @MOISONPILL #CENTRALSAINTMARTINS #BAFCSM #FASHION #FASHIONSTUDENT #ROSE #ROSEPETALS #PETALS #ROSES #BLACKROSE #BLACKPETALS #GOWN #DRESS #FASHIONDESIGN #EMERGINGDESIGNER #CSM #UAL #ASTHETIKMAGAZINE #SPOTLIGHT #EXPLOREPAGE #TRENDING #NEW
