UBIQUITY - Ubiquity started in 1991 as an independent record label in San Francisco. The label became notorious with big DJ names worldwide such as DJ Shadow and the Beastie Boys and, as the label's popularity grew, the clothing arm of the business was born. It started producing its T-shirt line in 1995 and this season sees the launch of new designs with musical tones.

Ten artists feature in the collection promoting the brand's original remit of supporting independent artists. SP:UK currently has standalone stores in London and Bristol and a further 30 UK accounts. It hopes to use Margin to source other brands for its stores as well as potential stockists.           UZI - US T-shirt brand Uzi is showing at Margin for the first time - its first ever show outside its home country. Fusing punk imagery with new inclusions taking inspiration from blow-up dolls, Japanese bondage scenes and gigantic patterns, the brand has a good following in Japan and its home city of New York, and hopes to increase its presence in the UK as a result of the show.
