Fashion East 25th Anniversary
Institute of Contemporary Arts



Fashion East celebrates its 25th anniversary at the ICA with a cultural hub and programme of activations over 20 – 21 September. 

An exhibition in the Lower Gallery offers audiences an intimate look at Fashion East’s dynamic history as a pioneering talent incubator that has launched the careers of some of fashion’s most exciting designers. Curated by Lulu Kennedy and Raphaelle Moore alongside creative consultant Patrick Waugh, ‘US LOT: 25 Years of Fashion East’ features special commissions and sculptures from Simone Rocha, Craig Green and Richard Malone, special artworks from Jawara Alleyne and Claire Barrow, iconic fashion photography of alumni by among others, Wolfgang Tillmans, Joyce NG, Jamie Hawkesworth plus previously unseen imagery from Fashion East’s vaults.

To accompany the exhibition, Fashion East have joined forces with cultural powerhouses Dazed and Nowness to deliver an inspiring programme of talks, film screenings and live events. 

“We are thrilled to be collaborating with Fashion East on their 25th Anniversary. As two organisations that support and champion emerging creative and artistic talent, the ICA seems like the natural home for this very exciting takeover.”     – Bengi Ünsal, ICA Director

Fashion East 25th Anniversary is presented in partnership with Dazed, Nowness and Nike.
