Amid the flurry of runway shows and presentations, Blac Label’s debut event provided a refreshing and authentic way to connect with the energy of London Fashion Week. Guests were welcomed into a space designed to celebrate the best of emerging culture, where conversations felt as central as a love for fashion. By combining streetwear and luxury through dialogue, the event highlighted the importance of creating platforms that inspire and inform, helping people navigate and define their own paths within the fashion industry.

The evening unfolded around three panel conversations that explored the intersection of fashion, creativity, and lifestyle. Designer Georgia Jobson of A Vintage Fit and celebrity stylist Ash were among the voices sharing personal insights with a highly engaged audience. The discussions covered everything from the nuances of individual style to the challenges of progressing in an industry known for its high barriers to entry. Speakers emphasised sustainable ways to grow, urging attendees to find confidence in their unique vision while also acknowledging the persistence required to succeed in an unforgiving climate.

Beyond the panels, the atmosphere was designed to feel like a celebration of London itself. Hospitality from Chicken Shop brought a playful, distinctly local flavour, while a bespoke Blac Label bar served signature cocktails throughout the night. Partners including BAPE and Peak Moods added to the cultural richness of the evening. The turnout was remarkable, with a crowd that not only filled the venue but also reinforced the value of events like this, proof that there is real appetite for spaces that prioritise dialogue, community, and cultural exchange during fashion week.

Blac Label’s founder, who has spent the last decade working as a personal shopper for some of the world’s biggest names, including Davido and 50 Cent put together an experience grounded in community, style and useful insight. By creating a platform that champions independent talent and reshapes how people connect with fashion, Blac Label’s debut marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter extending more than a one-night activation, it signalled the potential of cultural gatherings to inspire, educate, and empower the next generation of fashion voices.

For people curious about The Sarz Academy, how would you describe it? The Sarz Academy is a creative hub for talented people and the way of letting people—becoming creatives, producers, artistes alike—have a chance at making decent music. Basically, what I’m doing is creating the things that I needed during my time, but I did not have. Because there are certain things that I would have doubled down on, certain things I would have invested in, if I had the knowledge. Because of creative people like me, I created the Academy to help guide them. Do creatives apply to The Sarz Academy or do they have to be scouted? They apply. If you get chosen, you go through a course of training, from music to the music business. As a private person, what would you say you like to do when you’re not producing or in the studio? Like what do you do outside of music? I like to call my friend Abby (also a member of his team) to go to the cinema to see a movie together. Movies are a big part of our frien
