The Pop-Up Crisis event, a unique fusion of high-end fashion and charitable purpose, returns for its fourth year to London’s prestigious Savile Row. From December 5th to 14th, this event transforms a former police station into a hub of philanthropic activity. Spearheaded by Anda Rowland of renowned tailors Anderson & Sheppard and esteemed fashion editor Tom Stubbs, this event channels the allure of luxury fashion into a powerful force for good.
This year’s event, hosted by developer Henigman, promises an exceptional range of offerings. Brand new and past-season designer pieces, alongside unique samples and slightly imperfect items, are generously donated by illustrious brands like Vivienne Westwood, Wales Bonner, Pringle of Scotland, and many others, representing the pinnacle of fashion excellence.
The event not only showcases fashion but also features a diverse array of activities. A highlight includes a ‘shop their wardrobe’ segment, offering items donated by celebrities like Kate Moss and David Gandy. Additionally, there are wreath-making workshops and a late-night shopping event, culminating in a raffle with enviable prizes. These events, combined with the high-profile celebrity involvement, significantly boost the fundraising potential and public engagement.
