Graduate Fashion Week...

I went to Graduate Fashion Week with the girls in my class at uni..
Loved Loved Loved it
The work on show was amazing
We went on the Education Day so that we could see a show with a bit of everything in as we couldn't choose one uni over another to go and watch on the other days.
It was great to look around the stands at the exhibition to see examples of this years graduates work, there was portfolios on show, sketchbooks, photography, and samples of garments.
There were plenty of books and magazines available to take away with you full of information on each university. Some of these are brilliant such as Segue which is a magazine made by the graduates of Epsom universities Fashion Journalism course.
The fashion show at the end of the day was really good to see some of the best garments from each university. As it was the education day and the final show of the year, the models started to dance around and have some fun. It was a laugh to see, but I think that if you want to go and see a professional serious show it would be good to go the day before which is the Gala shows. This is when the press are there and there are awards for the best designs of the year.
Some of my favorite universities from the exhibition and fashion show were, De Montfort, Nottingham Trent, Salford and Epsom.







These are some photographs from some stands at the exhibiton, I only took photographs of the garments which have something similar to my project at the moment. I am working on fashion and architecture so I am looking at structure and form.
