BA (Hons) Fashion DesignSouthampton Solent University
- Southampton, United Kingdom
I attended Southampton Solent University to study Fashion Design. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent learning and creating my own stuff, and developed my practical, written and communication skills to a professional standard. I have also expanded my knowledge of the Fashion Industry and the development that goes into each process. I was also particularly drawn to the illustration side of the course and used a range of mixed medias to create my sketches and final collection drawings. I still continue to use and enjoy my illustration skills in my own personal time.
My time at university also gave me the opportunity to meet lots of new people and allowed me to become much more independent as a person. It has allowed me to express myself through designing and creating a final collection. I graduated from Southampton Solent University in July 2017 with a 2:1.
