London-based designer Omer Asim got his start freelancing with the wardrobe team of the Harry Potter films, but don’t expect to see capes or sorting hats in any of his collections.
The former architecture student, who also did post-graduate studies at the London School of Economics, learned fashion design during an internship with Maurice Sedwell on Savile Row. Asim prefers to “undesign” his clothes through pattern cutting, or rather, a lack thereof. In his spring collection, for instance, the designer cut pieces linearly, so that signs of construction were barely visible. His architectural background is also present with mixed textures, clean lines on dresses and pants, and panels of pixilated prints that brighten up the white and pastel colour palette that was seen on many spring runways.

H&M has announced it will join forces with downtown mistress Leigh Lezark for the launch of an upcoming shop-in-shop inside London department store Selfridges. Instead of commissioning the Misshapes DJ/model to design a collection, though, the Swedish retailer has asked her to curate the collections inside their new location. If you’re wondering what exactly “curating” entails in this case, don’t feel lonely, because so are we. From what we can gather, Lezark will be selecting some of her favourite pieces from the collection as well as of course making a personal appearance when the shop opens its doors next Thursday.
The concept behind the shop-in-shop is to offer customers exclusive and limited-edition items with noteworthy curators stopping by regularly. It seems a little bit out of character for H&M, a company usually committed to bringing affordable goods to the masses on a global scale, to rent out space in a high-end department store and stock it with pieces of limited availability.
Still, the opening comes at a significant moment in British fashion. It seems that everyone’s eyes have been on London this year because of style icons such as the two Kates (Moss and Middleton) and Alexander McQueen. An American analytics group has just named the city this year’s number-one fashion capital based on web activity. If you also take into account the increasing number of promising young designers that it keeps on turning out, it’s easy to see why H&M would choose London as the setting for a more exclusive project.
