Disruption: Fashion Performance at the Barbican

Photograph by Gavin Fernandes

Fashion, styling, photography, film, music and dance were brought together for this spectacular fashion-in-motion performance inspired by the current Barbican Art Gallery exhibition Future Beauty: 30 Years of Japanese Fashion and the diversity of East London.

Disruption was the culmination of a three-month project which showcased bespoke designs created by a group of 50 young people from East London, working alongside professionals from the Barbican Centre, London College of Fashion and Guildhall School of Music & Drama as part of the LCF Widening Participation programme.

With thanks to Caroline Stevenson (project manager on behalf of LCF), Tony Charalambous (creative director on behalf of the Barbican), Winston Rose, Chloe Scrivener, James Hamilton Butler (LCF Course tutors) and Gavin Fernandes – a course tutor on FdA Fashion Styling and Photography – for photography.
