Mulberry to take a break from London Fashion Week catwalk British label Mulberry is without a creative director and is not planning to stage a catwalk show during London Fashion Week in February 2014 Mulberry's catwalk shows - usually staged in the grand ballroom at the Claridge's Hotel and featuring a pooch or two - are without a doubt one of the highlights of London Fashion Week, but the brand is taking a break from the runway next year. READ: Mulberry's Emma Hill - 'I'm not dropping off the face of the earth' The label will certainly be participating in the bi-annual trade-only event in some form next February, but "has not finalized its creative director search and will therefore exceptionally not stage a catwalk show" a company spokesperson told WWD. Emma Hill, the brand's former creative director of six years, bowed out after showing her spring/summer 2014 collection in September citing disagreements with management over creative and operational strategy. The Brit was responsible for the best-selling Alexa satchel named after model and TV presenter Alexa Chung, and helped turn the Somerset-founded company into a global powerhouse.
