London’s very own ‘Recycling Pioneers’ Junky Styling, have been trading out of the uber cool Truman Brewery in the heart of Brick Lane, for the past 10 years. Annika Sanders and Kerry Seager’s joint talents on a sewing machine & eye for detail have transformed unaccounted reclaimed garments into chic, elegant, sought after fashion.
On the evening of Thursday 20th September on Dray Walk, Brick Lane, Junky Styling are integrating the top names in ethical and organic lifestyle in their ‘Community’ catwalk event - a visual splendour, suitably pleasing on the eye’s and ears: Styled by David Holah of Bodymap fame; Hair by Vision; Make Up by Shu Uemura; Shoes by Terra Plana & Beyond Skin.
Musically, your ears will enjoy the joyful sounds of Jimmy K-Tel of SanchoPanza as well as the ever-clever sound of the Unabombers, complete with a live PA with the soulful sounds of Amp Fiddler.
Along side Junky Styling’s ‘Community’ catwalk event, Annika & Kerry are proud to team up with Tamsin Blanchard (Fashion Editor, Telegraph Magazine), for the launch of her long awaited book, ‘Green is the New Black‘. With a foreword by British born Super Model Lily Cole, ‘Green is the New Black’ has been tipped to be the ‘Bible’ for any ethical fashionista & a must read for all.
September’s event will be a celebration of projects past, present and future, pulling together a ‘Community’ spirit, showing familiar faces on the catwalk, and showcasing innovative, unique designs, synonymous with Junky Styling.
Kiehl’s was founded as an old-world apothecary in New York’s East Village neighbourhood over 150 years ago. Throughout the years, they have remained dedicated to providing patrons uniquely efficacious skin and hair products through the most attentive, personalized service. Kiehl’s are joining hands with Junky for this event along with ‘Stolen Space‘ East London’s Leading Contemporary Urban Art Gallery, who will reinterpret the front of the Junky Shop with the fresh styles of their in-house artists.
Junky Styling would like to thank the following for their generous participation in ‘Community’: Divine Chocolates, Infinity Foods, Juniper Organic Gin, Cafe Direct, The Old Truman Brewery, and Brother.
