I feel incredibly fortunate to have met His Majesty King Charles III and Her Majesty Queen Camilla on multiple occasions, and I can say without hesitation that they are kind, gracious, and devoted to their duties. It's an absolute privilege to witness their coronation as they ascend to the throne of our fabulous country.

I wish King Charles III and Queen Camilla all the very best as they lead our nation, and I have no doubt that they will continue to uphold the values and traditions that make Britain great.

The coronation ceremony was a truly remarkable sight to behold, and I hope that everyone enjoyed celebrating this historic event with their friends and families.

Long live King Charles III and Queen Camilla! 👑🇬🇧👑

I am so proud to have been featured on The Sunday Times ahead of my latest LFW show and I can't help but feel grateful for the journey that has brought me to this point in my career. From my beginnings in Merthyr Tydfil, to studying textile design at Brighton, and then going on to work with the likes of Alexander McQueen, Philip Treacy, and Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel and as the Creative Director of Givenchy, it's been an incredible ride.

And now, here I am, preparing for my latest London Fashion Week show and I'm thrilled to be able to put on a show that's not just about the clothes, but also about the experience. I want people to have fun and enjoy themselves.

I can't help but chuckle when I think about the nicknames some of my celebrity clients have given me. Kylie Minogue calls me Mr Sparkle, Shirley Bassey calls me Golden Girl, and Beyoncé called me Tina Sparkle. But at the end of the day, what matters most to me is creating beautiful, intricate designs that make people feel sophisticated, exclusive and glamorous.

And with my autobiography almost finished and set to come out next year, I can't wait to share even more of my story with the world. Who knows what the future holds, but for now, I'm excited to share my latest collection with the world tonight, showcasing my collection @ 9pm closing London Fashion Week.

18/02/2023

The JULIEN MACDONALD studio is buzzing with excitement putting the finishing touches to the collection, this show will be a true masterpiece.

The army of supermodels arrived in anticipation to see what incredibile outfit they will be wearing for the Fashion Show, our team has been working tirelessly to make sure each model looks like perfection!

Can't wait to share this vision with the world and hope that you will be joining for this one-of-a-kind event.

Get ready to be dazzled, amazed and inspired by the latest live at London Fashion Week Sunday 19th of February @ 9pm

You can watch it live tomorrow on our Instagram @ 9pm
