Brand History
“Fortune favors the Brave!”
Growing up by Portobello Road was the daughter of a savvy dressmaker.
In may 2007 a young Arts and Fashion graduate from West London was determined to make an impact on the fashion industry. Aiming to create a new kind of conceptual British Label, an exciting venture began…
December 2009 saw C Grand London win the New Design Award at East London design Show, a show for new emerging designers, whilst early in the year of 2010, the label successfully gained the support of Princes Trust.
This propelled the private label, which has gone from strength to strength, exhibiting at various promotional trade fairs including - Clothes Show London June 2010, Profile at Mayfair 'LFW' Sept 2010, Margin Private Trade show Feb/August 2011 & 'JFW'- in Tokyo International Fashion Fair July 2011.
C Grand London now runs from a studio based in the Prestigious Cockpit Arts Studios situated in London Holborn, after being awarded a place there by ‘The Worshipful Company of Drapers ’ for 2 years in succession.
