Christopher Kane

Christopher and Tammy Kane’s story is an upbringing of a rough and tough surrounding but with a complete affection for television style icons and inevitably for clothes. The siblings have forged an extraordinary partnership which has seen them rise above the ranks in fashion design as a result of their compositional and collection expertise. Difficult to pin one point of reference to another, the collections already developed are materialised, moulded and rapidly formulated in providing idiosyncratic shilouettes. Inspiration for their work can be called upon their childhood memories to their living quarters in Dalston, London. Christopher Kane’s Spring/Summer 2009 collection saw spherical geometrically cut circles continued in and around leather and organza sequin dresses. Christopher graduated with a MA in Womenswear at Central Saint Martins in 2006 and in 2007, won the ‘New Designer of the Year’ award at the British Fashion Awards. He has previously worked and consulted with Donatella Versace.
