David Band Textiles Award

Today the judges visited the graduates entered for the David Band textiles award. After talking through my collection with the judges and attending the award ceremony I found out I came runner up!
This has defiantly give me confidence in my collection and positive feedback to work on.
Due to coming one of the runners up I was awarded two tickets to the Gala Show. Such a great experience and a fantastic show to be invited to.

First day at Graduate Fashion week, really happy with the display of the stand, the collections looks fab.

My final collection all set up 

 Graduate fashion week was a great experience, a good opportunity to meet and make contacts. I had a variation of people interested in my work, international companies, online sites and internships.
Having the collection on the stand gave the opportunity  to speak to people in the industry and get feedback on your collection and discuss the next stage in your career path.
I am know currently in the processes of following up contacts made at graduate fashion week. Fingers crossed ....
