Ozwald Boateng screening at UCA Epsom
World famous fashion designer Ozwald Boateng OBE will be visiting the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) at Epsom for a special free screening of his biographical film 'A Man's Story' on 21 March 2012.
The evening will also include a question and answer session with the designer, who received an honorary degree from UCA in 2011.
Over the past two decades Ozwald has redefined men's bespoke tailoring and his flagship Savile Row store is at the forefront of men's fashion. His trademark suits have been worn by the likes of President Barack Obama, Mick Jagger, Samuel L Jackson and P Diddy.
'A Man's Story' charts 12 years from 1998, through Ozwald's personal as well as professional life. It shows his meteoric rise as Creative Director for Menswear at Givency, the opening his own Savile Row store, through to receiving an OBE.
UCA events officer Katie McGill said: "We are very excited about Ozwald's visit to UCA Epsom. This event is a unique opportunity to meet one of Britain's top designers in person and be inspired by his phenomenal career."
The event is free of charge and open to the public. Places are strictly limited and must be reserved ahead of the event.
