THE CENTRAL SAINT MARTINS BA SHOW 2008

Last week Dazed attended the Central Saint Martins Fashion Design BA show. An eclectic mix of inspirations could be seen in all the students' collections, taking everything from the ultra-futuristic to the performance-based, cubism to print-on-print and embellishment to minimalism.

Particularly exciting collections came from David Swetman, Hyung Soo Kim, Kumiko Tani, Stafano Beruschi, Alithia Spuri-Zampetti, Shao Yen Chen, Xiao Xiao Dong, Emma Hedlund, and two Dazed favourites: Craig Lawrence, a young knitwear designer who makes knitwear for Gareth Pugh, and Alice Kirkpatrick, who appeared in Matt Irwin's film for Armani Exchange last year.
