Professor Jimmy Choo’s JCA/London Fashion Academy has opened the JCA Gallery, a vibrant showcase of the talent of its learners. Located in the iconic JCA campus on Hanover Square (Mayfair, London), the new ground floor gallery is a space for designers to display their garments and accessories.
The physical gallery will be supported by a new e-commerce section of the JCA’s website from Thursday 11th April, allowing the public to buy and rent products from the learners for the very first time.
The vision behind the learner founded and curated JCA Gallery is to offer those from both the JCA’s Undergraduate and Masters programmes a platform to enter the world of retail. The Gallery will be open to the public Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday each week by appointment only from 10.00am to 5.30pm.
At the JCA, we are committed to nurturing our learners’ talent, as well as giving them the support to put their product out there in front of the fashion industry before they graduate. Therefore, we are thrilled to introduce the JCA Gallery at our Mayfair campus and supporting e-commerce websites that will allow learner works to be sold and rented. At JCA we do not only hone students’ creative skills but also equip them with business skills that help them launch their own businesses.”
