First we were what we ate and now we are what we wear, according to Frances Corner (left), the new head of the London College of Fashion. Dr Corner, who spent four years as head of the Sir John Cass department of art, media and design at London Metropolitan University, said: "Fashion is such a crucial subject for the 21st century. It is not simply about the way we dress, it's about our perception of ourselves and I'm looking forward to making sure we remain a global leader in fashion education."
