Gimme the facts…

This wee lad from Glasgow grew up wishing one day he'd be as good at making clothes as his idol, Gianni Versace.  Well he made it, and now this Central St Martins alumni not only collaborates for the Versace label he is the designer behind their diffusion line Versus, as well as designing for his eponymous label.   This 26 year old has crammed a lot in but he hasn't done it all alone.  Sister Tammy (see left with Christopher) plays a keen role in the Christopher Kane empire running the financial side of the business as well as assisting with the design process.
