SAMPLE Festive Talk and Table

OnGreenwich Peninsula, London is transforming. This almost-island of opportunity presents a blank canvas to imagine, to create, to build; an opportunity for a new London.The Peninsula’s first settlers are creating a modern urban neighbourhood across an area twice the size of Soho. In ten years' time, this will be the capital’s most boldly modern landscape. A future with 15,000 new homes, 13,000 new jobs and 7 diverse new neighbourhoods. With leading-edge digital media college Ravensbourne, a newDesign Districtopening in 2020, and a 5km garden walkway coming soon, here is a celebration of new creative energy and ideas, all wrapped by the Thames.

DISCOVER MORE ABOUT THE SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS-OWNERS HOSTING THE EVENT: 
<H2>WAYNE HEMINGWAY</H2>
Wayne Hemingway MBE began his fashion career selling handmade and vintage clothing at Camden Market. With his now-wife Gerardine, iconic fashion brand Red or Dead was born and the couple enjoyed over fifteen years of back-to-back catwalk shows establishing the brand as a worldwide success. The sale of the company in 1998 led to Hemingway’s latest venture – HemingwayDesign. This young creative team of designers have collaborated with likes of Coca-Cola, eBay and more recently Greenwich Peninsula, as the curator of our own SAMPLE pop-up market.
<H2>TRACEY NEULS</H2>
Award winning shoe-designer Tracey Neuls has been making shoes since she was nine years old. The cereal boxes she once used as materials have now become luxury Italian leather shoes in stores across London. London Fashion Week have recognised her distinctive designs and Time Out listed her as one of their Top Ten Creatives in London. 
<H2>TATTY DEVINE</H2>
Hand-made in the UK, Tatty Devine jewellery is unique, colourful and bold. First created in 1999 by Rosie Wolfenden and Harriet Vine, both were awarded MBEs in 2013 for their Service to the Fashion Industry. They’re bringing an alternative Christmas tree to Greenwich Peninsula this December in the form of a ‘Rainbow Halo’ that celebrates joy, inclusivity and love. Despite their humble beginnings selling leather cuffs at London’s Portobello market, they have now cemented themselves as the world’s go-to brand for the ultimate statement jewellery.
