Benjamin Bertram

Benjamin Bertram believes that no matter who you are, or where you come from, the clothes we choose to wear are own personal statement and a representation of who we are at a particular moment in time; evolving and changing as in life, we do the same.

Benjamin Bertram is a London based directional design label, launching in 2012 after the designer graduated from Sheffield Hallam University with a First Class BA Hons Degree in Fashion Design. His Graduate collection won the Fashion design category of the arts event ‘Brightest Spark’ awarded by Rita Britton; known for her discovery of Burberry CEO Christoper Baily. Benjamin Bertram subsequently showcased his winning work as part of the ‘Brightest Spark’ Installation exhibition.

After undergoing work placements with fashion editorial magazines and London designer J.W Anderson Benjamin proceeded to establish a label in his own right.

His work in conceptually based, with full exploration of research that is represented through various medias as well clothing.
