CHARLI COHEN

Fusing luxury, technology and a futuristic edge, the 100% British made collection features opulent Italian performance fabrics, body-contouring design lines and distinctive bespoke hardware. Bridging the gap between performance sportswear and ready-to-wear fashion, effortless, oversized outerwear pieces are thrown over second-skin technical baselayers. Combining statement design with performance driven function, the garments are inspired by the inner toughness of the woman who wears them. Graduating as Womenswear student of the year from Kingston University London in 2012, Charli Cohen’s graduate collection saw her shortlisted as a finalist for numerous awards including the
prestigious Lycra ® Future Designers Award at the WGSN Global Fashion Awards, the Gold and Womenswear Awards at Graduate Fashion Week and the Vauxhall Fashion Scout Merit Award. Granted much soughtafter sponsorship from INVISTA (owner of the Lycra ® brand), The VIS Collection is the young, British designer’s independent debut.
