Claudia and Roland to judge Fashion Fringe

The annual Fashion Fringe competition has become one of the most highly anticipated events of London Fashion Week, and while we always look forward to spotting the stellar designers of the future on the catwalk, we're equally excited to find out who is joining the judging panel each year.

Naomi Campbell, Tom Ford, Donatella Versace and John Galliano have all leant their expertise to the project in the past and this year's judges have just been announced. And they are (drum roll please) Claudia Schiffer and Roland Mouret.

The duo will join the crack panel of experts charged with picking this year's finalists, who will then present their collections in September. Erdem, Basso and Brooke, William Tempest and Sinha Stanic have all kick started their careers thanks to the initiative so, no pressure, but expectations are high.

Applications for this year's Fashion Fringe open today so if you're a budding designer and fancy trying your hand at fashion stardom then find out more at www.fashionfringe.co.uk
