Five Slovak fashion designers will present their collections during London Fashion Week thanks to a partnership between Slovak Fashion Council, Fashion Scout and the International Fashion Showcase.

Looking to support and develop Slovak fashion, the initiative will give designers the opportunity to present themselves to buyers with a catwalk show and a showroom presentation on 15 February.

The designers have all previously participated in the International Fashion Showcase, which has hosted more than 600 international designers from 70 countries since 2012.
