A survey of 500 designers by the British Fashion Council in 2016, before the Brexit referendum, found that 90 percent of the 290 that responded wanted to remain within the EU. Just 4.3 percent wanted to leave.
The British Fashion Council has also raised concerns in a report sent to the Parliamentary Culture Committee.
London was the only region in England that voted to remain in the EU referendum, but the British public as a whole voted to leave, and London has to respect the majority will to leave the regional bloc.
"I am optimistic about London, London's future and the future of our country," Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, once said in response to the outcome of the Brexit vote. "In the long term, our capital will continue to thrive, continue to be open and continue to be a world leader."
"But at the same time, we should be under no illusion about the scale of the challenges that lie ahead - and the potential consequences of a badly managed Hard Brexit," he said. "These are risks we simply can't ignore."
"London is the economic engine of our country, accounting for a third of national growth," the mayor said. "When London succeeds, Britain succeeds. But the (British) government's negotiation position ... puts London's and Britain's economic prosperity at risk."
