ANDREA CREWS (Thu 2 Oct)

Fashion ! Art ! Activism ! Last night, new kid on the block Maroussia Rebecq aka Andrea Crews had all those in the know at her wild show, an Off to the official calendar. This inspired girl went to art school, not St Martin’s, and is combining a feminist, experimental, and socially aware approach to producing her fashion-art hybrids. The show mixed brand new designs with pieces reworked from recycled clothes. Socially conscious, Crews works with disadvantaged communities – the embroideries on her current range of sweatshirts for example were done by women in the favelas in Rio. She’s already collaborated with Nike and Lacoste, and Sara, buyer from Colette and early supporter of Crews’ wild universe, was in the front row last night. Watch this space…
