Creative Director and Co-Founder | Rachel James Ltd

Fashion Design BA (Honours)- 2011

My course is incredibly creative and conceptual and gives you a platform to properly work out what your aesthetic is and what makes you different. It is a fast-paced course and very labour intensive: it really prepared me for the pace of the industry and toughened me up. The course also has a year-out working in the industry, which was the fundamental reason for me choosing the course. I am the Creative Director and co-founder of my own menswear label, Rachel JAMES, in London. I started the label straight out of university. We do creative yet functional men’s' streetwear, all made in Great Britain. I showcase my collections at London Collections: Men and Paris Men's fashion week.
