Hannah Marshall is possibly one of the most promising up-and-coming talents in British design. After graduating with honours from Colchester School of Art and Design, Hannah's work has been internationally recognised thanks to New Generation, Topshop's platform for new creative talents during London Fashion Week.

New Generation is the platform that launched the careers of designers like Alexander McQueen, Matthew Williamson and Julien McDonald - which makes it easy to predict a successful career for Marshall.

We can classify her designs as part of the new contemporary luxury culture from the UK. Her designs are intelligent, with meticulous tailoring and an almost architectural use of lines, along with an indulgent passion for materials.

The use of proportions, voluminous silhouettes and her unique use of Braille as a distinctive feature in her garments, along with her fusion of fashion and communication, give the Hannah Marshall brand a lot of personality.

Her contrasts are striking - leather and silk transparencies combine without losing the black essence. After three collections, magazines like Vogue and Elle have praised her personality and her work, and style.com considers her one of the up-and-coming talents in international fashion. We wanted to introduce her to you as a new designer to keep in mind, because Hannah will surely have a lot more to say in the fashion world. Meanwhile, we'll leave you with some photos of her work...
