LCF Exhibition 2012

I feel so lucky to have been selected to preview my graduate collection at London College of Fashion's external exhibition!

The theme was 'Magic & Mirrors' and the title definantly lived up to the layout of the show.

Here is two of my 'Memento' pieces suspended in a box of illusions....


It was such a wonderful evening (28th June) and a true celebration of London College of Fashion's graduate talent and a beautiful ending to an incredible 3 years of my life.

You can watch the graduate catwalk show at the following link ...

London College of Fashion 2012

So you may have read a post sometime ago about how my graduate collection is appearing in a film and newspaper for a British Fashion Council presentation. Well they are both officially online right now!

They were presented at The British Fashion Council's BA graduate preview day where industry professionals are invited along to take a look at emerging talent from a selection of fashion universities.

But what is most amazing is that the college won 'WGSN Digital Presentation Award'.

You can find my 'Memento' hand necklace and hand ring in the film and the ring alone in the newspaper!

Please do take the time to have a look at both.... just follow the links below, the production is fabulous.
