“There is no room for ugliness in fashion.” Part 2

Not content with storming Britain, our favourite home-grown designer manages to crack Japan with his collection “Revisitation by Scott Henshall” in collaboration with the megabrand Abahouse. I wouldn’t know the first step to take for such a leap, so Scott explains “Basically, Abahouse saw the article on me called ‘Subversive Sloane’ in Vogue July 1999 and loved my “Englishness”. This was a wonderfully blank opportunity for me, they wanted someone fun, fabulous and British. “Revisitation” is my creation based on the concept that ‘to look back is to look forward’.” Lucky Scott has his own label which has 300 stocklists, is in 17 stores and there are 6 collections every year. Thankfully, this level of success has not made him arrogant, quite the opposite - he feels humbled and privileged to have been given this opportunity. He then quickly chips in “not many designers get to create their own label in Japan, which makes it much cooler!”
