Church of England

The Missioner to the Creative Industries for the diocese of London, the Revd Peterson Feital, suggests that fashion can affirm “the way God has made us”, in a new video released by the Church of England on the eve of Fashion Week, on Wednesday. The film explores Bible references to clothing, and interviews Simon Ward, whose book, The Character of Fashion, was launched at St Sepulchre’s, in London on Thursday.
