FASHION CROSSOVER LONDON,

THE BRIDGE TO CREATIVITY

In 2015 Since Wang founded the multi-service designer platform

Fashion Crossover London (FCL). “Growing up in China, the

fashion industry was very secluded. I had to go to the underground

market just to get my hands on a fashion magazine. I moved to

London to pursue my studies at Central Saint Martins (CSM),

but upon graduation, there was a real sense of loneliness. You fall

into the arms of the ruthless fashion industry without any support.

With Fashion Crossover London I wanted to bridge the gap

between East and West, as well as create a hub for the most innovative designers.

We aim to support, promote and guide them through our online showcasing, e-commerce,

PR showroom and brand management. As a team, we offer expertise and opportunities to

the youngest and brightest fashion designers of the moment.”

This year marks the three year anniversary of the platform’s official launch, with nearly
400 designers part of the FCL online family. “I never expected that we would expand this
much, this quickly. I truly believe that young talent is the future. They are fearless, wildly
creative and extremely forward-thinking. Every day I am inspired by their views of the
world, and how their self-expression manifests itself. Take for instance Hong Kong designer
and Royal College of Art (RCA) alumna Lydia Fung. Her collection revolves around new
age intimacy, she expresses the freedom of endlessness and formless erotica in the digital
age. Then there is the Taiwanese CSM alumna Jung-Hsuan Lin who creates elegant
jewellery that introduces inner sexiness into mundane life. FCL provides them with a
FASHIONCROSSOVER-LONDON.COM platform to spread this message as advocates for female empowerment.
