CSM BA 2025 Runway Show

Central Saint Martins has long been the incubator of some of the most daring, boundary-pushing talent in fashion — a place where tradition meets radical creativity and where voices from around the world converge to redefine style. This year’s graduating designers continue that legacy, each weaving their unique stories and cultural identities into collections that challenge norms, spark conversation, and remind us why CSM remains the heartbeat of fashion innovation.


Phoebe Bor

Phoebe Bor’s untitled collection is a tactile meditation on the South African bush where she grew up, folding feathers, grass, and eucalyptus into wearable tributes to the quiet intelligence of the natural world. Her pieces don’t just evoke nests and furs – they’re constructed through a kind of ecological choreography, where hand-bound mohair and resin-coated leaves become tools of both storytelling and survival.

Seoyoun Shin

Seoyoun Shin’s collection, “I (still) want to be with you,” transforms memory into graphics, assembling intimate objects from her personal life into wearable visual metaphors. From a pleated skirt shaped like stacked magazines to garments that look like furniture sketches come alive, she turns nostalgia into geometry with quietly arresting results.
@seenseo


Dieter Vlasich

Dieter Vlasich’s deeply personal collection is a decolonial dialogue, created in collaboration with Mayan women artisans in Mexico and grown—literally—from seed. With natural dyes, geometric silhouettes, and slow storytelling techniques, his work challenges Western timelines and invites a more ancestral, relational way of dressing.

Hannah Dixey

Hannah Dixey’s “ALL I WANT IS A MORTGAGE” is as much about yearning for stability as it is about childhood make-believe, turning her rented flat and vintage trinkets into a stage for oversized doll clothes with emotional heft. Think laser-cut pony buttons, felted nostalgia, and prints lifted straight from the lived-in chaos of adulthood.

Hannah Smith

Hannah Smith’s “The Gentle Frame” is a romantic, radical reframing of disability in fashion – a tribute to the elegance of difference and the poetics of the body. Wrought-iron gates become sheer embroidery, medical aids are reimagined as couture accessories, and vulnerability is rendered in fringe-cut leather and organza.
@hannahsmi.h


Haseeb Hassan

Haseeb Hassan’s “Fragmented Threads” is a cultural remix rooted in diasporic tension, where Madame Grès meets the streets of Lahore and London in a masterful negotiation of belonging. His patchworked cottons, laser-engraved leathers, and sharp tailoring reframe tradition with both reverence and rebellion.

Isaac Lizarraga Curiel

Isaac Lizarraga Curiel’s “Tails!” is fashion seen through a dog’s dreamy filter – a kind of pet couture for people who want to dress like joy feels. With zero-waste techniques and materials like shredded bedsheets and fringe yarns, he gives us a collection that’s equal parts historical pageant, theatre kid, and four-legged fantasy.

Jada Tudor

@mariesssschulze


Myah Hasbany

Myah’s Aurora, Texas imagines a town transformed by a UFO cover-up, blending 1950s Americana with otherworldly, off-kilter designs. The collection celebrates body diversity with detailed hand embroidery and textile manipulation, offering glamour to underrepresented sizes.

@myahhasbany


Rose Seekings

Rose’s collection captures the joy and fragility of British seaside holidays through sculptural knitwear inspired by kites. She experiments with wire, paper, and partial knitting to create collapsible, textured silhouettes that float between garment and installation.

@roseseekiings


Yuura Asano

Yuura Asano explores the fragile threshold of adolescence where girlhood begins to shift toward womanhood, drawing on historical feminine silhouettes filtered through youthful imagination. Using natural fibers and expressive screen-printed marks, the collection reimagines traditional womenswear through a lens of innocence and hope.

@yuura.a


Andy Pomarico

Andy Pomarico channels their experience as an autistic, queer outsider into a rebellious, maximalist collection that embraces discomfort and celebrates what doesn’t fit in. Combining secondhand materials into sculptural, oversized forms, the work is both chaotic and performative, challenging traditional fashion norms.

@andy.pomarico


Ayham Hassan Musleh

Ayham Hassan Musleh confronts the harsh realities of Palestinian occupation through a collection rooted in ancestral craft and resistance. Using traditional textiles and innovative techniques, the collection honors cultural identity and embodies hope amid struggle.

@ayham_hassan_99

@Daisyannaknight
