Georgina Harley-Smith is one of the hottest design talents
to be emerging out of London at the moment. Her label
was launched during London Fashion Week Spring Summer 2008 at
Vauxhall Fashion Scout and received an amazing welcome from
the British Fashion Industry.
Georgina graduated from the London College of Fashion in
1999. Since then she has worked for top industry names,
such as Nicole Farhi, Fake London and Levis.
The designer has also gained invaluable buying experience during
her time at Harvey Nichols buying office where she bought labels
such as, Burberry, Diane Von Furstenberg, Missoni, Armani and
Max Mara, for the Women's Wear department. She then went
on the buy for Burberry where she was involved in fabric buying
for the mainline Burberry Women's Wear collection and Burberry
Prorsum collection.
Georgina's creative passions are reflected in her strong
and sexy designs. Her skills and expertise of working
with luxury leather and printing on silks really shine through
with her signature leather pieces and delicious silk dresses
masterfully draped against the body.
The Georgina Harley-Smith label has now built a growing exclusive
stockist base and press portfolio including, Vogue, Elle, GQ
Glamour magazine, Hello and OK who are spreading the news.
The label is fast becoming a favourite of underground fashion
cultists as well as celebrities and has been seen worn by Alexa
Chung, Sienna Miller, Estelle, Skin and the Pussy Cat Dolls.
Georgina has established strong ongoing collaborations during
London Fashion Week with key industry names such as, Toni &
Guy, Red Bull, Wolford, Swarovski, Drapers Record, Daniel Sandler and
Kurt Geiger to name a few.
