Green Cut is the first initiative able to bring together such an important and numerous group of top-level designers. The result of this liaison is a collection to be presented during London fashion Week and shown to the public at Somerset House. The project then leads up to a preview of the “Green Cut” video during the British Film Festival, and a celebratory party on October 19th.

The project culminates in a showcase of the collection exclusively in Harrods 22nd October-5th November.
