In 2014, at the British Fashion Awards, Samuel L Jackson read the voiceover in an incredible tribute to the late legendary Louise Wilson OBE who sadly passed away earlier that year. Wilson was a British professor of fashion design at Central Saint Martins. Her former students include Alexander McQueen, Jonathan Saunders, Christopher Kane, Richard Nicoll, and many more incredible creatives.
Samuel L Jackson read the words from a poster that adorned Louise Wilson's studio/office wall, and which epitomized Wilson's direct approach to teaching and mentoring - often loud, brutal, abrasive - but always truthful and with piercing impact.
The poster on Wilson's wall, and which Samuel L Jackson read that evening was created by GFDA. It is their 'classic advice print', and which also adorned the walls of design gurus as Jony Ive (exApple) and Jenna Lyons (exJCrew).
