BEAUTY: Clothing--Olly Shinder

The talent incubator Fashion East has been a fantastic force in the fashion world. Founded by Lulu Kennedy MBE, Fashion East has nurtured the likes of Kim Jones, Craig Green, Simone Rocha, Martine Rose, Wales Bonner, Charles Jeffrey Loverboy, Per Gotesson, J.W. Anderson, all of whom can be found featured on this blog! The organization takes on three designers at a time, and allows them to show three collections before rotating out to a different cast of designers.

The current crop of talent at Fashion East includes young designer Olly Shinder (previously here) who showed his SS '25 collection--his last under the Fashion East wing--at London Fashion Week. Shinder is inspired by his interaction with the underground gay fetish world. He told Vogue UK that his fascination lies in uniforms, and this collection, while still letting the fetish world peek out, was definitely more centered on the idea of a uniform being a vehicle to remove any traces of individuality for membership in a tribe or corps.
