"We've hosted this event in Scottish castles and contemporary and architecturally renowned Scottish buildings in Stirling and Glasgow over the last seven years," said Hartmann. "To showcase the nation's top talent in the UK's fashion capital, London, in 2013, will allow an even wider audience to become acquainted with what we have to offer as 'Fashion Scotland', and enable the talent to network with the UK's top industry players, fashion editors and buyers. London is, after all, the UK's fashion capital - it's where the top talent converse, exchange ideas, learn, grow and do business. It's a wonderful opportunity for everyone and I'm very grateful to the Secretary of State for Scotland for supporting the event and giving us this incredible platform."
This year's shortlist sees Scotland's best-known fashion names vie for the coveted awards, as Jonathon Saunders, Christopher Kane, Louise Gray and Holly Fulton compete for the Scottish Designer of the Year prize. Other categories include Scottish Creative Excellence Award, Scottish Young Designer of the Year and International Designer of the Year.
