This year I was lucky enough to be able to go down and see the graduate collections at Graduate Fashion Week heald at London's Earls Court. I had never been to GFW before and so was very excited about what the place would look like and what would be there.
I arrived just before the BCU graduate design show was about to start. This catwalk show was much different to any other fashion event I have been to, the designers allowed themselves to be more creative, imaginative and above all more daring within their collections. The use of bold colours, bright lighting and energrtic music created more of a fashion carnival.
There was one collection that stood out to me as something I would love to see in shop windows this summer, it was a beautiful set of designs by Matthew Paul. The collection look like a cross between Cos and Kenzo, simple clean cut designs with striking bold print and colours, I am looking forward to seeing the next stages this graduate will carry out!
After the show I took a look around the graduate portfolio work in the main hall. Although I found looking through the work greatly intimidating it was also hugely beneficial and inspiring.
I really wish I would have gone to Graduate Fashion Week in previous years the event is one i would recommend to anyone, it was a great day out!
