Fashion Records

Fashion Records is a British independent record label, publishing reggae music.

Founded in mid 1980, Fashion Records is one of the more successful UK-based reggae labels, and one of only a few British reggae labels to release records that were produced in their own recording studio.

The label was the brainchild of John MacGillivray and Chris Lane, a couple of reggae disciples, and was a spin-off from MacGillivray's Dub Vendor record store. The first Fashion record release reached the top of the UK reggae chart in 1980, being Dee Sharp's "Let's Dub It Up". For the next decade both British reggae musicians, and Jamaican citizens travelling in Britain were recorded by the label and these included Keith Douglas, Carlton Manning (of Carlton and The Shoes), Alton Ellis, Carlton Lewis and Johnnie Clarke amongst others.
