Topshop and Hobbs are to sponsor emerging fashion talent exhibition FashionExpo.
The exhibition takes place on November 19 at The Business Design Centre in North London, and will host over 75 London-based designers and manufacturers, promoting their collections and production skills to retailers and designer brands.
Topshop will support the London-based manufacturers and Hobbs is helping to nurture young London design talent.
Organised by the City Fringe Partnership, with funding from the London Development Agency, the one-day exhibition will include catwalk shows for both designers and manufacturers, a business support zone and workshops led by industry experts.
Nick Samuel, non-executive director of Hobbs, said: "Hobbs is delighted to confirm its ongoing support for FashionExpo and the designer show Profile. They have proved to be a resounding success, not only to Hobbs but also for the new and emerging designer talent within London. This is just what London has been waiting for - a trade event showcasing the best of the capital's designers with the quality of manufacturing today."
