British Fashion Council announces Headonism designers
The British Fashion Council (BFC) has announced the recipients of Headonism 2016. This year milliners Laura Apsit Livens and The Season Hats join existing Headonism designers Harvy Santos and Sophie Beale. The four milliners will display their SS17 collections in a dedicated installation in the Designer Showrooms during London Fashion Week September 2016 at Brewer Street Car Park. Headonism is a BFC designer support initiative curated by Stephen Jones OBE, celebrating the new wave of emerging British milliners. Recipients showcase their pieces at an installation during London Fashion Week each season, while also receiving mentorship and business support throughout the year. The Headonism scheme has previously supported milliners such as Awon Golding, Emma Yeo, Keely Hunter, Lizzie McQuade, Noel Stewart, Piers Atkinson and William Chambers.
