Dr. Martens x Central Saint Martins | Meet the winners
In 2023, we rejoined forces with Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London. Offering our Original 1460 boot as a new expressive canvas, we challenged 9 standout students from the MA fashion course to create a unique look which captured the rebellious spirit of the first ever Dr. Martens boot.
But in the end, there could only be 4 winners. Each with completely different interpretations of the 1460 boot, inspired by shape. Form. Technique. And personal stories. The 4 winners have all been awarded a bursary to support the development of their creative practice during their final academic term.
Watch the video to get the full lowdown on the challenge, from initial concepts to the winners seeing their creations come to life in the DM’s office in Camden and on the runway.
