THE BUMPER-15

Growing up between Northern Ireland and Ibiza, a geographic catalyst inspiring his direction as a designer, Jonathan Anderson caught the clothing bug while studying to be an actor in NYC. Fascinated with costume design, he earned a degree at the London College of Fashion before venturing into design where his brand JW Anderson began, back in 2008.

The first to earn both Menswear and Womenswear Brand of the Year in 2015 at The Fashion Awards, JWA has been racking up nods, accolades, and collaborations year after year and shows no signs of slowing down thanks to Anderson's dramatic mix of inside and outside-the-box design risks.
