In November, we hosted a panel discussion at Central Saint Martins. The event was to celebrate the launch of iconic British fashion designer Keanan Duffty’s new book, The Fashion Entrepreneur: A Definitive Guide to Building Your Brand.

Keanan was joined by a panel of influential figures from the worlds of fashion, marketing and branding. Fashion designer Jenny Packham, who is Creative Director of her eponymous luxury brand; Raoul Shah, CEO and Founder of creative communications agency Exposure; and Julian Vogel, Partner at brand communications agency ModusBPCM.

The discussion was expertly chaired by Hywel Davies, Dean of M School (Fashion, Textiles, Jewellery and Materials) at CSM.

CSM was the perfect place to launch Keanan’s book as both he and Jenny are graduates of the College. Keanan graduated from BA Fashion in 1986, with Jenny graduating the following year from the same course.

On the night, graduates and current students were welcomed into CSM for a drink’s reception and the chance to network, before heading into the LVMH lecture theatre for the panel discussion.

After the talk, the panel were incredibly generous with their time, staying behind and chatting with guests.
