Jo Cope wows at Oxford Fashion Week’s Concept Show!
Conceptual fashion and accessory designer Jo Cope showed three amazing pieces from her past and current collections in Wednesday’s OFW Concept show in the stunning setting of the Randolph Hotel, Oxford.
Cope’s three striking block colour outfits included the finale garment; a dress which made the body appear to be vacuum packed inside a large purple square! This formed an apt and climactic ending to an exciting show.
Jo Cope is one of the hottest up-and-coming conceptual designers in the country. She has worked with Topshop Oxford Street to create window installations, the Design Festival, B Store concept boutique for Frieze Arts fair and retails her conceptual accessories in concept shops in the UK and internationally.
Jo said: “I was very proud to be part of Oxford Fashion Week. It is a highly professional environment which champions all aspects of fashion, including the conceptual. It is a refreshing alternative to see such amazing presentations of fashion outside of London.”
Cope’s work is visual and intelligent with trademark primary colours and clean but visually stimulating aesthetics.
Cope’s futurist presentations of fashion are driven by the desire to make people ‘see fashion and accessories in a completely new and less ordinary way’ and her work is at the heart of progressive conceptual fashion.
Cope’s finale piece was on the front page of today’s Oxford Times.
