SMWLDN is holding its first Fashion Day, kindly supported by Nokia, on Thurs 27 Sept from 9am-6:30pm at the Sport, Entertainment & Cultural Hub @ Engine.

Fashion Day, powered by Nokia, takes an in-depth look at the impact of social media on the fashion world. Taking it from the perspective of designers, journalists, and high street brands. How is data shaping the business? How new social networks such as Pinterest, and Fancy influencing the industry? All these questions and more will be addressed in this fashion-devoted day!

The day will be split in to four sessions focusing on different areas, starting with trends, followed by social media best practice, we'll then be taking a lunchtime break where some of the UK's leading fashion start-ups will be showcasing their wares. After lunch, we'll look at engagement and influence and finally, the social future of fashion.

If that's not enough, there's also a fantastic competition where you could win a trip to LA! More below...

The SMWLDN Hub Schedules will be carefully curated to include some of the week's best events. We'll be working with sponsors and partners for some events, and other Hub spaces are open for your own inclusion! If you'd like your event to be featured in a Hub, please check out this blog post to find out how to apply.

The SMWLDN Hub Schedules will be announced soon, in the mean time, check out what you can expect to find in each SMWLDN Hub below.

We said there were more to come, and as promised, here they are!

In this second announcement, we have another three SMWLDN Sept '12 Hub to introduce you to, on top of our previous announcement of ExHoSo House, Google Campus, The Hub Westminster, O2 Workshop and Unruly Media - giving us a total of 8 SMWLDN Sept '12 Hubs for the week.

As explained in the last announcement, each SMWLDN Sept '12 Hubs will have a topic area, and events taking place in the Hub will focus and/or relate to that particular Hub's topic area. Each Hub's schedule is being carefully curated, Hub events will highlight and showcase some of the best SMWLDN events taking place this September. Also, with London being a bit of a beast with events taking place all over the city, we hope that this will make SMWLDN easier to navigate, both physically and on the online schedule.

With 180+ events taking place across London, it can sometimes be a little difficult to navigate and get between events. To aid this problem, this September we're introducing SMWLDN Hubs to London, where events topics and some of the best events will be grouped into venues during the week.

We're very excited to introduce five Hubs for this year's SMWLDN Sept '12 at some very cool venues, with more Hubs and their topics to be announced.
