A curated group of learners from BA Fashion Design, Branding & Entrepreneurship, and BA Fashion Design & Accessories at JCA | London Fashion Academy are set to present their debut capsule collections on 9th June 2025. Each designer will showcase six looks each at a to-be-announced venue on the theme of ‘REVELATION’. The fashion show will take place in partnership with the esteemed Haberdashers’ Company, marking the coming together of two academic institutions who do things differently. The Haberdashers’ Company values of community, empowerment and individuality, align with the JCA vision to launch the careers of 27 young designers. Both schools care deeply about each student carving its own entrepreneurial and creative path.
This year’s show theme ‘REVELATION’, represents the future of fashion. The graduate show will celebrate a new pool of talent, who will continue to shape and define the fashion industry in years to come. The show will combine a fusion of futurism, avant-garde storytelling, and bold creativity through each learner’s collection.
Director of JCA, Lucy Choi comments:
We are delighted to announce that this year’s theme for the JCA graduate show is ‘REVELATION.’. Embracing innovation, creativity, and story-telling, the theme perfectly captures the future of fashion.”
Director of Admissions at Haberdashers’ Monmouth School, Becky Wilkins comments “Working with Professor Jimmy Choo as our Patron of Fashion, Design and Textiles is an incredible opportunity for our students and a standout feature of our offering. Through workshops and mentoring sessions, students gain invaluable experience and they’ll be thrilled to participate in this exciting event. Being a Haberdashers’ school, we’re especially proud that the showcase will be held at Haberdashers’ Hall in London, bringing together students from Haberdashers’ Monmouth and other Haberdashers’ Schools.”
This year, each designer has been carefully hand-picked by an all female industry based panel consisting of leading entrepreneurs Karen Millen OBE, Alison Lowe MBE and journalists Astrid Joss (Tatler) and Gemma Williams (Vogue Business, Forbes). Selection criteria was based on the students performance, dedication, and outstanding creativity. Showcasing the top learners from the course, the ‘REVELATION’ show aims to captivate, inspire, and take each audience member on a journey into the future.
Stefan A.R Orschel-Read, Director of Programmes, states:
I am very proud to present the impressive work of the fashion graduates from our Mayfair and Boston Manor campuses at the JCA BA Graduate Exposition 2025. This year’s work truly embodies our international approach to fashion design and entrepreneurship. Our theme of REVELATION. represents the act of casting light, both physically and metaphorically. Collections find their inspirations in the philosophy of identity and social commentary, the experiences of marginalised intersectional groups, and examine the importance of faith in our glitched digital world.”
