I never got round to putting up more pics from this day so here we are.

I put a few of the main dress up here but here is the rest.

This shoot is collectively the work of a photographer, model, make up artist, hair stylist, jewellery designer and print designer.

The shoot has pieces from my 'upcoming designer of the year' collection 2010, the zipper collection 2009 and even a few dresses that were made from recycled camisole tops rescued from a department store (before they got chucked in the bin!)

Pics from my degree space.
This is how I presented my work at the degree show.
I had to go into uni yesterday to take it all down which was very sad!
But i suppose its the start of the next chapter of my life.


Manchester Graduate fashion show went really well, as soon as I get pics I'll put them up.


The first pic is of a row of digitally printed scarves which I will either sell on this blog or my website in the next few weeks.

I think I will do a post with the print designs so you can see exactly what is printed onto each scarf. Some are made from georgette and some are made from crep de chin.


If anyone is interested in buying one let me know, they will be from £60-£70 each.

Manchester graduate fashion show

I feel as though I never actually handed my work in as I am embellishing like a crazy lady.
This is the half finished skirt that was inspired by the waistcoat.

Manchester Graduate Fashion Show is this wednesday and I am in the middle of preparing the collection.

Get tickets for the show here.

The past few months at uni have been mental!
I can't believe im on the other side of it all now.
Here are some pages of my portfolio, although after seeing all those amazing portfolios at graduate fashion week I know just what I'd do now to change it all.

Next wednesday is the Manchester School of Art Graduate Fashion Show which is being held at manchester science and industry museum. It will be a really good show so all of you manchester bloggers should head down and support us manc designers!

You can buy tickets for £8 here

I was instantly drawn towards the work of designer Kelly Dyer on the Cochester stand at Graduate Fashion Week.

She used recycled leather and jewellery to make some of these amazing pieces above and I was really amazed at her photo shoot images.

You can see the progress of her work at http://kelly-dyer.tumblr.com/.

I'm hoping that she puts the leather cuffs up for sale that were on display and nominated for the Mulberry accessories award. (hint hint!)

Well done Miss Dyer, your work was incredible!
