Lucas-Nascimento.jpg


Background: Graduating in 2008 from London College of Fashion, Nascimento has spent the last three seasons showing at Rio Fashion Week.



Design signatures:
"I like to
create silhouettes that are not typical of knitwear, using knit
unexpectedly through careful yarn consideration and solid research. I am
interested in the geometric and textural aspects of knitwear. My pieces
are a take on the classic cocooning, protective knit, but with a twist -
either in yarn or structure.”



Three SS12 inspirations:
"Woven textures, American animists such as Agnes Martin and tailoring.”  






Lucas-Nascimento.jpg





MUNGO-GURNEY.jpg

Central Saint Martins graduate, Mungo worked with Roberto Cavalli and
The Creative Archives, as well as one-off commissions, before setting up
his own label.

"Modern print combined with simple, classic cuts.”




Trademark piece:
"There are a
few things but a long, slim, printed silk shift epitomises the
collection, as does the laser-cut bandeau one-piece swimsuit.”

before moving to London to study menswear BA at Central Saint Martins.

How would you describe your ideal client?

personality.”

Three SS12 inspirations:
"Nico, Madame Grès and Aaron Huey.”

SISTER-BY-SIBLING-PEACH.jpg


Background: A collaboration
between Joe Bates, Sid Bryan and Cozette McCreery, SIBLING is all for
one and one for all. Before setting up SIBLING, the designers each
worked for various brands and design houses, learning that it is "never
as easy as it looks and most importantly that invaluable lesson in how
not to do something. Also if all else fails: cup of tea, a nice biscuit
and laugh!”



Design signatures:
"On the SIBLING
family tree, SISTER is on the branch right next to brother SIBLING so
you can expect colour, humour, sparkle and that everything will be
knitted.”




Trademark piece:
"We like mutating classic, traditional knitwear designs or techniques so the Knit Monster Scare Isle comes to mind.”

SUSANNA-BETTENCOURT.jpg


Background: Susana Garcia
Lopes gained a BA Fashion Knitwear at Central Saint Martins and an MA in
Digital Fashion at London College of Fashion. She chose to work with
designers like Brooke Roberts, Alexandra Moura and Fátima Lopes to learn
about all aspects of the fashion business before starting her own.



Design signatures:
"Statement
metal jewellery; intricate, delicate, handcrafted knitwear in balance
with the beautiful finishing of the seamless technology.”



What is your brand philosophy?

"I use technology to create awareness of the traditional knitwear and
craft techniques that are becoming lost in modern society. In my view,
one cannot exist without the other: technology only remakes what hands
have already discovered. Also, I aim to dress real women.”

POST Design in the 1980s with graphics superstar Neville Brody, working
on projects in major museums in the UK and mainland Europe. After years
moonlighting as a DJ, Tim set up global music consultancy Music

label SOAR to great acclaim. This is his first season with NEWGEN.
