Week 6: Tutorial session followed by Todd Lynn up coming designer

Had my tutorial with lucy discussed on my essay question and the trip to Dalston
little interview of Todd Lynn I found on the LFW website to introduction the designer:


Designer name: Todd Lynn

Origin: Canada

Career highlight:
“Always the forthcoming show at London Fashion Week.”

Design background:
Todd graduated from the Central Saint Martins MA and has previously worked with Roland Mouret.

Design signatures: “Razor-sharp, androgynous tailoring.”

How would you describe the Todd Lynn woman?
“Fearless with a heart full of rock’n’roll."

Trademark piece: Best know for his tailoring, Todd’s designs also feature "a considerable amount of fur and leather for good measure."

Name three things that are inspiring you for autumn/winter 2011:
“The Bible, The Age of Enlightenment and Sid Vicious.”

What music is playing in your studio this season?
“The Vaccines, Arcade Fire, Crystal Castles, Kanye West, The National and lots of others.”

What encapsulates fashionable London for you? “The great thing about London is that it lives and breathes fashion. The street is still the best way to get a snapshot of London style.”

How does London influence your designs? “I love the art galleries in London. I could spend all day wandering from one to the next. The Haunch of Venison is an absolute favourite and always inspiring.”
