THE BULLETIN
Fashion Future SHOREDITCH HOUSE
June 12, 2012 by renee
Future Fashion returns with an in conversation with Junky Styling. Host, Amisha Ghadiali will be interviewing designer Kerry Seager about her adventures in up-cycling. Junky Styling, founded in 1997 was inspired by the prevalence of recycling in places such as San Francisco and Tokyo and the resourcefulness of the people of Vietnam and Thailand. The company began in an exposed studio on a shop floor, reflective of a completely transparent working practice. Junky is an innovative design-led label. All garments are made from the highest quality second hand clothing, which is deconstructed, re-cut and completely transformed. The New Yorker described it as ‘an eccentrically chic line of mutant couture’. A focus and belief in individuality means that no two garments are ever exactly the same, a design concept which led Vogue to describe Junky as ‘high fashion street couture’. Kerry will be filling you in on their journey, their book ‘Wardrobe Surgery’ and their recent move across Shoreditch from Brick Lane to Hackney Road.
