Mark Fast SS20

Beneath the strip lighting of the London Fashion Week runway, Mark Fast presents the tribe of his neon jungle, where 80s streetwear collides vivdly with his panache for contemporary knits. SS20 sought inspiration from the exotic colours of the Amazon rainforest, but now stands as a tribute to its beauty, following recent reminders of its increasing destruction. Like the powerful reticulated python, a generous serving of snake print twists itself around the new collection among flurries of feather-like fringing in an explosion of electric hues.

Ones To Watch: Gala Borovic SS20

Hailing from Belgrade, Gala Borovic (Гала Borovic) is among the latest emerging designers to be presented the Fashion Scout semi-annual Ones To Watch Award. Her collection, which is loud, colourful and artfully abstract, incorporates a variety of textiles and digital prints inspired by a private art studio known as "The Base", after which the collection is also named. Having previously won Fashion Scout's South East Europe Award at Ljubljana Fashion Week, Borovic's more eccentric designs include a chainmail bomber jacket paired with space age tracksuit bottoms, and a corset formed of Donald Trump's disembodied face.

Emily Lambert, Russell Square

Emily Lambert is a WSET (Wine and Spirit Education Trust) Level 3 certified sommelier, which means she knows significantly more about wine than the self-proclaimed aficionado at a posh dinner party. At twenty-two years of age, she is among the youngest at her level (one step away from Master Sommelier), but she has high aspirations, which include dismantling the elitist preconceptions surrounding wine, and educating the likes of you and I on the finer qualities of this very accessible drink we often take for granted. Emily currently works for Coravin, an ingenious tool that pours wine without having to uncork the bottle, although she is soon launching her very own website to complement her regular Instagram content, among other exciting projects. If gin can have its heyday, then surely so can wine, and Emily is the woman to lead the way.
