Graduate Fashion Week Photo-Shoot

Look 1 of my collection was selected for the final 10 of the Graduate Fashion Week photo-shoot, unfortunately due to postage this dress was squashed and shot like this. Through this photo-shoot I gained press coverage within The Daily Mail, The Independent, Vogue.co.uk and featured in BecauseLondon.com

Graduate Fashion Week stand - Colchester School of Art


For Graduate Fashion Week I helped set up the stand for the show. We had quite a big stand this year being very near to the front of the entrance and right next to the industry lounge which was very exciting. For the stand we had large and tall industrial rails (9 of) scattered around the edges of the stand and had rails either side of the middle of the stand and having a focal point in the middle with a collection of students garments. Our Uni has a mixture of Textiles and Fashion students, with this a lots of the Textile students had designed these gorgeous wallpapers which were printed by a company and was stuck the the back walls of the stand in the focal point of the stand.



Front view of the stand from walk way....having chunky wooden benches which held the students postcards and the brochures, I really liked this layout and having accessable images of students work at the front of the stand as not always are students work visible unless seen on the rail.


Side view of the stand from the entrance walkway...cluster of mannequins between the rails of students collections.


With the stand which had lighting features sponsored to us from Offkut.com, they have these amazing chunky wooden and steal lights with a real old and industrial theme which worked perfectly with our stand.


Portfolio table from Offkut....This table held all the students portfolios and sat around the students garments from mostly textiles for fashion students.

Photo-Shoot of entire collection - Jason Little

My entire collection was photographed by photographer Jason Little in his Chelmsford studio, having the same model for each look.

Hair and make up inspired by Couture Dior


Heavy dark eyebrows with red lips and black flick of eyeliner


Hair has been piled on head forming two buns meeting in the middle


Look 1 full length shot, however I would like this look to only be shot from the knees up, focusing on the detail of the garment

I was really happy with the outcome of these photos as I felt Jason allowed me to have my own input and ideas for these images. Jason was very interested in finding out the concept of my collection and making sure it materialised throughout the images produced.
