Fringe events will link into new cultural projects like Fashion in Leeds and Leeds Indie Food. On the fashion front, highlights include Leeds Fashion Shows creating the north’s biggest fashion hub, Q&A with Adidas consultant Gary Aspden and former Loaded editor James Brown, and panel discussion Sustainable Fashion, featuring British fashion designer Christopher Raeburn. And to feed your mind further, there will be a forum with the Independent Food and Drink Academy and a talk from Market Wraps / The Allotment – proper Yorkshire streetfood. MORE HERE
