I
think this vibrancy is a product of our talented artists,
performers, and writers, who are blending the influences of

Anna Osmushkina, who has been in business for 20 years, is keen

recognised internationally as a springboard for new and
innovative designers.
In fact, when clips from our spring/summer 2004 prêt - a -

music chosen consisted of just the one word: London.'
