Multidisciplinary design house 5000 showcased its Spring 2027 collection during London Fashion Week, marking a significant milestone in the label’s ongoing international evolution.
Founded by Oakland-born designer Taylor Thompson, 5000 merges traditional tailoring, utilitarian workwear, and contemporary streetwear. The showcase builds upon Thompson’s selection for the prestigious Paul Smith Foundation Residency, which relocated the designer’s practice to London to deepen craftsmanship and cross-cultural creative partnerships.
