Craig Native

Raised in the ghettos of South Africa at the height of apartheid, Craig Native has been on a complex journey that inspires the collections of NATIVE. With a knee injury thwarting a professional football career, it was through activism and illustration that Craig found his true voice to create his ranges. Influenced by street life in South Africa, Native is an intelligent play on social and political realities but always with idiosyncratic humour.
As well as winning numerous fashion awards, Craig has been invited by Puma to create a range of African inspired streetwear in the lead up to the World Cup in South Africa in 2010.

UPSCALE STREETWEAR & DIRECTIONAL TAILORING
+++ Margin is a curated event where buyers know they can find great new labels season after season and don’t have to wade through hall after hall of established brands to find directional new products to offer their shoppers.
+++ Spaces are limited to appropriate brands only that have a directional edge and something new to offer.
+++ Margin consistently welcomes key buyers from directional stores and editors from cutting-edge titles keen to keep a step ahead of the competition and who know Margin is the prime location to discover new brands + at larger events where mainstream brands take centre-stage and priority, new labels can often be an opportunity missed.+++ The Original and the best platform for new talent for over 5 years, Margin was established to help new labels reach a wider buying and press audience. Margin was created out of necessity. Retailers and Editors travel the world looking for the next big thing but are never going to find it at a show whose costs prohibit fresh talent. The main drive of Margin was to establish a show where new young labels could find an affordable and successful platform.
