The portal has created a special "Launch My Line" space to promote designers from the Gen Next and Emerging sections of the upcoming Winter/Festive 2010 edition of LFW (September 17-21). It will also host targeted sales events to promote all LFW designers.



Gen Next features interesting new designers at the start of their careers, while Emerging shows designers who have been in the business for around 4-5 years.
