So, a few weeks ago, Sunday 6th June I made my way to Earls Court for Graduate fashion week - I had tickets to see the UCLAN show, and met a few of the lovely girlys from uni there too!
Now I'd been to GFW the year before i started uni, but this year I appreciated it so much more knowing how much of their heart & soul had gone in to not only the collections but all the surrounding work on the uni stalls - and the standard was incredible!
The catwalk was great -The models, as predicted, looked fantastic and the collections were fabulous! Here's a sneaky peak at my favourite two:
This was my favourite collection - As a whole it all worked, but individually each piece was stunning! The Eastern /Ethnic themed collection featured plenty of rustic gold beading, jewelery and bells adorned to a mixture of neutral & jewel coloured fabrics. A big trend for the summer, following SATC 2 and Pradas turbans on the catwalk. Unfortunately I didn't get the designers name so If this is yours, or you know who's it is please let em know and I will credit you on here!
I loved the pinky/coral in this collection, The whole collection was fairly similar to each other but once piece that did stand out for me was the knitted maxi (3rd model in the picture) - it fitted the model perfectly which really helped show the fantastic knitted pattern. This collection was by Sara Zadeh.
Also, I'd just like to congratulate my friend Sara Azuri on coming third in the River Island carrier bag design competition - I was so pleased to see her smiley face beaming at me from the wall!
