I’m a talented and creative person who can (and really wants to) bring beauty to this world! There is no brighter fire than that burning in my soul,” says Yana Flame, Founder of the festival.

Yana, who is herself a designer and originally from Yekaterinburg, Russia, added: “My inspiration was puffy dresses from the 16th–19th centuries in Europe and Russia, during the reign of Elizabeth I, Catherine the Great, Marie Antoinette, Queen Victoria, Sissy and others.”

The festival is centred on creativity, diversity and fashion, and provides an opportunity for young designers to negotiate deals with retail buyers. It will also benefit the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA).
