Discovered: Britain’s hottest new ethical stylists!

The four finalists of the BBC’s Style Search competition fight it out to be crowned top stylist, and win a place behind the scenes at London Fashion Week.

Visit the Style Search website (www.bbc.co.uk/thread/stylesearch) to find out how the stylists fared in their final challenge: to create an ethical outfit for £100…in two hours!

The winner, Holly Bryant, a 21 year-old Fashion Student at Bristol University, passed on some tips:

On hunting for a great ethical outfit:

Never dismiss anything you see, as every item of clothing has potential to become something fabulous.

On finding inspiration:

Think outside the box. Nobody wants to see something they've seen before.

On ethical fashion:

Ethical fashion is not to be snubbed, its a growing industry which clearly reflects that there is a strong interest from consumers for ethically produced clothing.
