As if there wasn't enough to look forward to at next month's London Fashion Week, we learned today that William Tempest has been named the recipient of the inaugural Vauxhall Fashion Scout Merit Award.  Receiving this award means Tempest can stage his first solo catwalk show at LFW.

Tempest narrowly missed out on winning last year's Fashion Fringe at Covent Garden award and has been much talked about lately since actress Emma Watson took to the red carpet in one of his creations.

At only 22, Tempest's C.V includes stints at Giles Deacon and Jean Charles de Castelbajac.  Not bad for a young lad.
