Bangkok-born, London-based print designer Lisa King has teamed up with a new London based festival, London Without Limits, with the aim of raising awareness of the difficulty faced by those with with impaired sight living in the capital. Known for her hand painted prints the blindfolds feature her AW star print, influenced by her study of stars and the bigger themes in which they appear.

The blindfolds will come in handy for the various events being organised for the festival, many of which will require attendees to be blindfolded, allowing them to both play by the rules and look stylish while doing so. In lending her support to the cause with money from sales going to the Royal London Society for Blind People. The blindfolds are available to purchase on London Without Limits, all proceeds go to charity.

Lisa King started her days as the assistant to Kylie Minogue mega-stylist Will Baker, getting her big break by creating the centrepiece gown for the Kylie retrospective at the V&A (ugh-mazing). The witty designer has since worked as a print designer for high fashion labels including Diane Von Furstenberg and Calvin Klein – but now, she’s cutting loose and showing her designs for all to see with her Boxpark pop-up.

Influenced by hip-hop and ideas of dichotomy, Lisa’s unisex SS13 accessories collection forges together seemingly opposed notions of concept, from masculine versus feminine to industrial versus organic. Like King’s own quirky style, the deconstructed petals of her Flora prints and the marked punctuation of Screw give the finger to traditional boundaries.

From her satirical puns, including the brash ‘Screw You’ and ‘Fancy a Screw’ emblazoned across hippie-loving canvas totes, inconspicuous necklaces to those infamous scarves, the Lisa King spring collection and pop-up isn’t easily missed.

Check out the video of the star-clustered, pop up opening event below, and visit the official Lisa King website for a chance to win tickets to a secret gig in-store this Friday.

The Lisa King Boxpark London pop-up on runs from 23 May to Friday 31 May. Check out her complete SS13 collection at www.lisakinglondon.com
