"I am very grateful to have the continued support of the Glasgow: Scotland with style Design Collective for my third catwalk presentation at LFW.
“Few people understand the challenges of running your own fashion label with limited capital. The people behind the Glasgow: Scotland with style Design Collective do and have been behind me since my first show.
“It feels really good to have support from my home city, Glasgow."
24 year old
Christopher originates from just outside Glasgow and is a Central St
Martins graduate where he gained an MA Womenswear in 2005 and also
earned a distinction.
In 2006, he was awarded the prestigious Harrods Design
Award and received the 2006 Scottish Young Designer
/ New Talent award, which was judged by a panel including Alexandra
Shulman of British Vogue and Hilary Alexander of The Daily
Telegraph. He was also named Scottish Fashion Designer of the Year at the 2006 Scottish Style Awards. Christopher’s inspiration for his award-winning MA show was derived
from obscure Picasso line drawings plus the glamour of Gianni
Versace’s collections in the 1990s mixed with American Beauty
Pageants. Both Anna Wintour of American Vogue and Donatella Versace are fans
of his work and the future looks extremely bright for this rising
star. Christopher staged his debut S/S 07 catwalk show at
London Fashion Week in September 2006.
