Forever Young Emporium
The rebirth of ForeverYoung Emporium brings a rich vintage and exotic maturity to the original brand ForeverYoung, the heart brand and namesake of Katie Young launched at London Fashion Week 2004. Now back, to celebrate LFW 2022 bringing even more of her heartland of Sustainability, Vintage and fond memories of ‘treasures’ found on exotic travels and life living in Asia in the 90’s.
This influence is combined with her long career that began as sample developer for English Eccentrics and her childhood, growing up in a seaside town in Somerset discovering Vintage clothes that belonged to entire wardrobe collections donated by relatives of old ladies retiring to the area. Katie pays homage to her earliest work and influences by unveiling a capsule collection that reimagines clothes and materials in unique new ways that brings heritage, heirlooms & beautiful fabrics that might otherwise go to waste.
