A Year in London (2026)

When Olivia, an aspiring fashion designer from a small hillside town in Italy, comes to London for a Master in a prestigious Fashion Institute, her aim is to develop the skills she has picked up from her third generation tailor father. What she isn’t expecting to experience is a terrorist attack which literally throws her across the street and into the arms of…. her lecturer, Nina. Will this coup-defoudre moment tempt Nina into disregarding her number one rule when it comes to students, or has she found true love in Olivia? Olivia’s time in London becomes a life changing experience in so many more ways than she could ever have imagined. An Anglo-Italian love story set against the backdrop of contemporary London, Brexit, sexuality, identity, diversity and fashion.
