On Saturday the 24th May, the New Designers Fashion Show will take place as part of Malta Fashion Week 2014. This is the show in which emerging local designers have the chance to show the country their designs and basically get noticed, it is also a form of competition as one designer will win the best new designer award at the Malta Fashion Awards one week alter. In anticipation of this event, (one of my favourite in the whole week), I will be shining the spotlight on each of these 'new designers'.
First off let’s start by saying that also his surname might not make this clear, Marco is Maltese and hails from the quaint and beautiful Birgu. He studied in Malta, at the Malta College of Art Science and Technology (Mcast) in Art and Design and furthered his studies in Tailoring and Fashion Design. This is the first time he is exhibiting in Malta Fashion Week, from 2010 till 2104 he was actually living in London were he worked on various projects within the fashion industry.
In 2012 Marco then started up his business - selling his designed fashion pieces, he sold these pieces at new designer and vintage markets around London, such as Brick Lane and Notting Hill but they are also available for sale online on Asos Marketplace and Ebay.
Having spent the last two years in London, it should come as no surprise that his main inspiration for this collection is actually EAST LONDON, however he describes the collection as having a MALTESE twist. A ready to wear collection for all the boys who want to be noticed and different from the crowd. Marco's sneak peek is a bit different ..he's showing us his new logo (first pic) and this blurred photo below and he leaves it up to our imagination :)
