Central Saint Martins MA Fashion show brought day one of London Fashion Week to a close with 14 collections by 13 graduates.  Among those watching the show were 2006 MA graduate Christopher Kane, Daphne Guinness and Zaha Hadid. Eilish Macintosh created two collections and was presented with the L’Oréal Professionnel Creative Award by Christopher Kane.

Eilish Macintosh said:

“My first collection used rope and ceramic cut outs cast into the fabric as bondage-inspired  jewellery.  Sportswear and the construction of leather sports equipment influenced my second collection in patent leather,” says Eilish. “Winning the L’Oreal Professionnel award is very exciting and opens up more possibilities for me.”
