The hotly anticipated British Designers’ Collective
at Bicester Village returns for its fifth year on 21
May – featuring designers including Jonathan
Saunders, Mary Katrantzou, Peter Pilotto,

Collective will feature work by artists from RA
Editions at the Royal Academy of Arts.
The British Designers’ Collective provides
emerging British design talent with a unique
opportunity to retail their work alongside
internationally renowned luxury brands in
Bicester Village. Guests will have the chance to
discover must-have pieces from some of the
most exciting up-and-coming names in British
fashion from a stellar line-up of designers
curated by brand advisor and retail consultant
Yasmin Sewell.
Following on from their success at last year’s
British Designers’ Collective boutique, Bicester
Village will welcome back House of Holland,
Lulu & Co, J.W.Anderson, Richard Nicoll, Mary
Katrantzou, Lucas Nascimento, Jonathan
Saunders, Peter Pilotto and Roksanda Ilincic.
This year’s celebration of British fashion talent
will also introduce Michael van der Ham,
Marques’Almeida, Bionda Castana and Ryan Lo to
the discerning guests of Bicester Village as part
of the 2014 British Designers’ Collective boutique.
