Prof Julian Roberts is a British fashion designer and academic, currently tenured as MA Textiles Professor at the Royal College of Art in London UK. Between 1996 and 2008, Prof Julian Roberts had worked as a practicing fashion designer showing 13 collections under his own labels at London and Paris Fashion Weeks. He has shown his professional fashion and video work in 12 countries, and received the coveted ‘New Generation Award’ from the British Fashion Council 5 times.

Over the past 15 years, Prof Julian Roberts has developed his own internationally recognized method of garment construction called ‘Subtraction Cutting’ which has been shown widely to audiences at London Fashion Week, published as a commercial book, and disseminated widely via the internet as a free publication.  His cutting techniques have been tested across the world at over 20 universities in the UK, and demonstrated live in front of audiences, including students, professionals and the public of all ages in over 17 countries across 6 continents, including: Canada, Mexico, Australia, USA, Russia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden, China, Nigeria, Chile, Colombia, Argentina and France.

During the 2 days’ workshop, students learnt the method of hollow construction that encourages lateral thinking, experimentation and risk taking, with end results that can be used variously to make men’s and women’s fashion garments, accessories, and interior/exterior design products.

On entering the World of FASHIONLUTION, fashion enthusiasts and academics alike are able to look forward to an historical array of fashion apparel, accessories and print that depicts from by-gone Victoria era right up to the end of the last century.

FASHIONLUTION: Fashion + Evolution aims to bring a fresh perspective to fashion history appreciation through allowing the visitors to embrace and participate, in person and via technology, the abstracts of lost time, so to trigger various dimensions of emotions; may it be nostalgia, sparks of inspirations or just pure enjoyment.

Fashion is perceived as a visual art of immerse creativity, often challenged to accommodate to the human body. Although it is connected to the impulses of the moment, it is also a strong force of continuity. Fashion’s willingness to evolve is part of what makes it modern and it is this aspect that has drawn humans to fashion as a paradigm of innovation. But fashion also has a powerful connection to past eras, mementoes, culture, values and history.
