As suppliers favour big brand orders and stores reduce their buys, emerging designers are bearing the brunt of the economic crisis. Thank you to @chet__lo @puppetsandpuppets @vitelli_official @abettermistake @siedres @shushu__tong for speaking to me honestly about how challenging it is to survive as an emerging brand in this climate. But also how it’s bringing creative ways of working in the face of adversity. Thanks also to @stevenkolb @carolinerush and @serge.carreira
