.Graduate Fashion Week.

So if you're as fashion obsessed as I am, you've probably been reading a lot about Graduate Fashion Week which took place this week, and you may have even been lucky enough to go. This year it was at the Truman Brewery, a cool location just off Brick Lane, which has recently become a hub of on trend fashion. I was, again, lucky enough to work backstage on the final day, Tuesday,in assisting with all backstage production particularly model dressing.

There were three catwalk shows throughout the day; the international show, the graduate fashion students from the UK, and the awards show. The whole of Gradate Fashion Week was brought to a close with the 'Best of Graduate Fashion Week' catwalk show which involved 25 students that were selected to send out their designs onto the catwalk. I was part of the backstage production for this show and another show, which was hectic at times because there were so many collections within the show. Each female model had 7-8 different looks, and male models had about 4-5 different looks, so the dressers were definitely challenged.

The event was attended by many high profile guests including Diana Vickers, Sam Faiers, Hilary Alexander, and the awards show was presented by Zoe Hardman. Each collection was very different and were all clearly products of years of hard work. The quality of talent at this years GFW was unreal, and I was really impressed by all of the collections, the pictures below shows some of my favourites. There were several awards given to the students with the winner of the George Gold Award being Grace Weller from Bath Spa Univeristy for her beautiful collection of lace pieces. The stands for each university also showcased the diversity of talent in fashion and design from across the country.

Once again, it was a great event that I had the pleasure of being involved in.
