Indian designer Manish Arora opened Kornit Fashion Week London in Covent Garden yesterday, celebrating artistry, diversity and fashion technology.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The show, which took place at Freemason\u2019s Hall, celebrated fashion, futurism and diversity, with performances by vocalist and composer Bishi, \u2018living sculpture\u2019 Daniel Lismore, performance artists Is She Hungry, drag artist Charity Kase, Pandemonium, Michael Moon, and recording artist Virgin X.<\/p>\n

British fabric sculptor and designer Daniel Lismore began and ended the show with a speech, after which the audience was taken on a further exploration of the senses into the metaverse via Oculus VR headsets.<\/p>\n

Challenging the old ideals of beauty and fashion through a liberation of the senses, Arora explained after the show that it wasn\u2019t just one inspiration, but everything in his head.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
