It seems Jasper Garvida, has hit the big time. Jasper, originally from the Philippines has worked  his way up from studying , pattern cutting, tailoring and construction at the International Academy of Design in Toronto. Having taken the title of  winner in last seasons of Project Catwalk, he has gone from strength to strength.  Throughout his younger years Garvida  studied at Central St Martins College of Art and Design in Central London. He spent two seasons working  as chief designer on the collections of Couture Label Michiko Koshino and his designs have a also graced high street stores such as Evans, Miss Selfridge, Wallis and Monsoon.  Celebrities such as Liz Hurley, Sophie Dahl and Sophie Ellis – Bextor are all fans of Jaspers work.

It seems there are many highs left to come for Garvida, as he has now been enlisted to show his work at London Fashion Week within the shows On/Off exhibition. Although he will not be a complete novice to this, Jasper should be very proud to have made it so far on his own merit. From starting his own label in September last year  it seems to be a non stop climb for this up and coming star.
