This year, instead of the front row and flashlights, London Fashion Week is taking place across the weekend online, as a digital-only event.
Much has changed for the fashion world since the 2020 event when CGTN Europe met stylist turned designer Deborah Latouche, who launched her 'modest fashion' label Saborah at the show. "I do believe in the product, there is a huge gap in the market," she said at the time.
When CGTN caught up with her again this month as she prepared for her label to be featured in the emerging designer category at the show, Latouche described how the pandemic had affected her business.
