Lone design club nasce da un ostacolo che quasi tutti i nuovi designers affrontano ad inizio carriera. Rebecca Morter non faceva eccezione. Giovane designer inglese alla ricerca di spazi e stores che ospitassero le proprie creazioni, decide, anziché dipendere ulteriormente dalla volontà altrui, di aprire lei stessa dei pop up stores nella capitale Inglese. L’idea funziona e da ciò prende vita il Lone design club. Rebecca decide di replicare il proprio successo aiutando altri designers nella medesima situazione, proponendoli al pubblico in temporary stores che crescono per numero e locations.
Oggi LDC vanta concept stores non solo a Londra ma in varie sedi europee fra cui Milano ed in Asia, ove poter incontrare il designer artefice della collezione ed ascoltare la storia dietro la propria produzione, con fondamentale attenzione alla sostenibilità. Con la crescita dei contatti e della community, i punti vendita si trasformano e diventano prima di tutto fonte d’esperienza, attraverso un ventaglio di eventi ed attività interattive partendo dall’incontro con il creativo fino ad arrivare a workshops, personal shopping e speaker panels.
Il club diventa quindi un punto di arrivo ma anche di partenza per gli emergenti, fornendo assistenza per lo sviluppo del proprio brand, attività di counseling e marketing, un luogo virtuale e reale dove incontrarsi, condividere e crescere ma non solo, LDC arriva a Milano con una serie di eventi dedicati a marketing, comunicazione, slow fashion e sostenibilità, per cui DéshabilléMagazine sarà official press partner quindi, SAVE THE DATES!

LONE DESIGN CLUB IS COMING TO ITALY
LDC is a British company founded in 2018 by fashion designer Rebecca Morter, with an ultimate goal of raising awareness on the importance of switching our consumer habits to sustainable fashion. This will offer more business opportunities, space for growth and visibility to emergent designers and lifestyle brands from all over the world.
How does it work?
If you are an emergent designer, we know how difficult it is to look for showrooms and multi-brand stores that will believe in your brand. Most times the resources are not many and you don’t know where to invest your money. There are several boxes to tick: you need financial advisors, marketing consultants, copywriters, and sometimes you may also need a brand coach to push you into the right direction. How can you cope with all of this?
LDC was born from the real experience and challenges faced by Rebecca Morter to respond to these needs she had at the time that she started her journey.
As a designer you will be able to sell your sustainable collection for 2 weeks at a time in one of LDC’s pop-up stores around the world. Shangai, London, Paris? Yes, it’s happening, subscribe to the community and find out how you can have a space in the store.
Breaking news – On December 9th LDC will open it’s first Italian pop-up store in Brera district.
Milan is still the capital of fashion, so being part of this experience will enhance your personal and professional experience.
It won’t be only about selling your products, but you will also be your own brand ambassador; think about how many times you’ve really had the chance to tell your story to your customers. Not so many, right? Today, it’s possible, moreover you can be part of several events where empowerment and entrepreneurship will be the leading topics.
For conscious tourists and Italians looking for something new, this event will be unique and special, a chance to bring to their loved ones a different Christmas. This will be an opportunity to meet and be inspired by new talents, discover and shop independent and sustainable brands with traceable and mindful practices, and eventually return home full handed and enriched by the value of the designer’s story.
Come by to meet & greet, join the events with International speakers, explore new topics from fashion sustainability, entrepreneurship, empowerment and be part of interactive workshops.
