French designer Faustine Steinmetz graduated from Central Saint Martins in the same class as established names such as Marques’Almeida, Phoebe English, and Maarten Van Der Horst.

After cutting her teeth under Jeremy Scott and Henrik Vibskov, she launched her own label in 2013 and makes her solo debut on the London Fashion Week schedule next season. The designer is known for her trademark handwoven denim jeans and has been dubbed 'the next big thing' by Style.com, as well as being awarded support by BFC NEWGEN sponsored by TOPSHOP.
