Mahogany Model Management & Untold presents Fashion Diversity at London Fashion Week to showcase new and established designers and models in an exclusive fashion show at the Museum of London.
This latest addition to London’s fashion calendar is a platform for training and showcasing new designers and models alongside more established names with inspirational collections, new faces and offering a pathway from college to the high street.

Fashion Diversity is a collective of newly emerging models, designers and artists all encountering the same barriers when venturing into the wider world of high street design and fashion, often with no real platform  to express themselves. Mahogany Model Management and Untold seeks to redress that balance.

Fridays shows and the first one on Saturday will showcase both established and up-and-coming UK designers. The final show on Saturday afternoon showcases the work of 10 designers from schools and colleges across London. Their designs will be influenced by the costumes in the Museum’s own stores from the 1960s and 1970s. Arrive in plenty of time for the best spot on the catwalk!

This event is also in collaboration with the Friends of Fashion.

Show times
Friday 19 September 1-1.40pm and 3-3.40pm
Saturday 20 September 1-1.40pm and 3-3.40pm
