Chau Har Lee, Yang Du <\/strong>and J. JS LEE<\/strong> have been chosen to showcase their work at the British Fashion Council\u2019s NEWGEN<\/strong> exhibition sponsored by retail maven, Topshop<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

The NEWGEN exhibition is shown just behind the main stage at London Fashion Week <\/strong>and will be viewed by thousands. This, alongside Womenswear and Menswear catwalk and presentations, will showcase 200 of UK\u2019s most creative designers. <\/p>\n

Lee<\/strong>, Du<\/strong> and Lee <\/strong>are three of twenty designers who have been selected by the British Fashion Council to show at the exhibition. Each designer is allotted a separate room to present their work. The room is a simple white box where the designers can customize it to suit their aesthetics creating a mini-display within a large collective exhibition. <\/p>\n

Char Har Lee\u2019s<\/a> exquisite shoe collection has had the industry buzzing with anticipation. Lee<\/strong> is one of five designers who has been shortlisted for the Dorchester Collection Fashion Prize<\/strong>. Her conceptual footwear gives a nod to strong architectural lines and unique silhouettes, pushing the boundaries of footwear design. Her shoes are available for custom order at Selfridges<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Yang Du\u2019s<\/a> playful and whimsical designs have garnered her a cult following including Marina (and the Diamonds) <\/strong>and Daisy Lowe<\/strong>. Displayed is her current collection entitled \u201cHe is Superman\u201d \u2013 aptly named for her interpretations of Superman, Batman and Astroboy. Her oversized t-shirt dresses, knitted accessories including humorous hats which become mischievous animal masks and mittens inspired by finger puppets make Du\u2019s collection a fun one to wear. <\/p>\n

J. JS LEE\u2019s <\/a>minimalist aesthetics are highly articulated in her spring\/summer 2011 collection. Her sharp tailoring is reinterpreted with a modernity that retains its femininity. Lee\u2019s designs are subtle yet sleek, giving women a new way to dress.
