As a proud Scot, I along with many other people in similar positions find it disheartening that opportunities for northern talent remain sparse despite the undeniable wealth of creativity here.&nbsp;For many in Scotland, London unfortunately isn&#8217;t a feasible or possible daily commute, yet it is often seen as the default hub for the British fashion world. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Through <em>Nord <\/em>I am to spotlight those who have championed the fashion landscape from outside the capital, showcasing talent in the face of these challenges. I want to draw attention to up-and-coming creatives in the Scottish and broader northern fashion scenes. This project is as much about sharing their work with a wider audience as it is about deepening my own understanding of what it means to thrive as a northern creative.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Sustainability and a commitment to local talent and craftsmanship are at the heart of my project, and I hope <em>Nord <\/em>inspires others to appreciate the artistry and talent that exists and thrives beyond London&#8217;s boarders.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-social-links aligncenter is-layout-flex wp-block-social-links-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-tiktok  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@nordscotland?_t=8sXwE9dWamX&#038;_r=1\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 32 32\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M16.708 0.027c1.745-0.027 3.48-0.011 5.213-0.027 0.105 2.041 0.839 4.12 2.333 5.563 1.491 1.479 3.6 2.156 5.652 2.385v5.369c-1.923-0.063-3.855-0.463-5.6-1.291-0.76-0.344-1.468-0.787-2.161-1.24-0.009 3.896 0.016 7.787-0.025 11.667-0.104 1.864-0.719 3.719-1.803 5.255-1.744 2.557-4.771 4.224-7.88 4.276-1.907 0.109-3.812-0.411-5.437-1.369-2.693-1.588-4.588-4.495-4.864-7.615-0.032-0.667-0.043-1.333-0.016-1.984 0.24-2.537 1.495-4.964 3.443-6.615 2.208-1.923 5.301-2.839 8.197-2.297 0.027 1.975-0.052 3.948-0.052 5.923-1.323-0.428-2.869-0.308-4.025 0.495-0.844 0.547-1.485 1.385-1.819 2.333-0.276 0.676-0.197 1.427-0.181 2.145 0.317 2.188 2.421 4.027 4.667 3.828 1.489-0.016 2.916-0.88 3.692-2.145 0.251-0.443 0.532-0.896 0.547-1.417 0.131-2.385 0.079-4.76 0.095-7.145 0.011-5.375-0.016-10.735 0.025-16.093z\" \/><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">TikTok<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m Brooke, a Scottish student hoping to celebrate Scotland\u2019s rich fashion landscape and the creativity it fosters.
