Suddenly, Britain's young designers seem to have the world's most important women wearing their creations. One day Michelle Obama dons a sleek Jonathan Saunders dress to host a White House dinner, while another day Samantha Cameron is snapped in an art deco-inspired Holly Fulton necklace. When the Duchess of Cambridge took her first steps on American soil this summer she was wearing an elegant, draped lilac shift dress by Roksanda Ilincic.
These designers are now among Britain's leading fashion lights, firmly stamping London's design credentials on the international map. But such stylish fairytales don't happen of their own accord. In fact, without the guiding hand of one woman, Lulu Kennedy, these designers might still be struggling to be noticed.
