Get Your French On, Giles Deacon

Thanks to his ANDAM award, he had the opportunity to show in Paris, he did, and now he’s not coming back to London.
As if you could say no to Paris.
Despite the fact that the Giles show was always at the top, the Marc Jacobs of London Fashion Week if you will, and the fact that Giles’ Paris show was alone on the very last day of fashion month, he said, “Sales were up 42 per cent for the spring collection, and a lot of new buyers came to the show. I work in London, employ people here, but I need to look at the bigger picture.”
If showing in Paris means more dinosaurs, we’ll happily jump on the bandwagon.
