The Fashion Lab installation will take place on the Eastern side of Covent Garden’s piazza, between the Actor’s church and the Apple Market.

The Fashion lab is expected to stand as the centre of visitors’ attention in the hours leading up to the show. The installation will allow visitors to get an idea of what the organisation of a fashion show looks like as well as get a feel of the frantic energy that spreads in the hours leading to the show.
