Katie Robert Wood is this season’s Merit Award winner as
showcased at Fashion Scout at the Freemason's Hall in Covent Garden during London Fashion Week in September and is one of the key emerging
designers featured in the FASHION SCOUT Paris Showroom this week until October 6th.
Katie’s new collection is launched under the ROBERTS|WOOD
label. Her approach to the design
process focuses on construction techniques and the manipulation of materials;
playing with repetition, structure and texture to create unexpected tactile and
visual effects. The collections are borne from a fascination with nature and
science, but are always imbued with a pervading sense of the unreal.
Katie was selected from over 200 emerging designers from
across the world who applied for Fashion Scout’s Merit Award. She follows in the successful footsteps of
past winners including David Koma, Eudon Choi, Phoebe English and Xiao Li.
Fashion Scout’s Founder and Creative Director Martyn Roberts
commented “Katie’s graduate collection was outstanding and deserved all the
international attention. The new
collection she is developing for the Merit Award builds on this
experimentation, taking her creativity to a new level.”
