Awards
The Orange Label Project
I was awarded second place for an illustrative piece I created for a competition ran by The Orange Label Project, an organisation run and supported by the UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women and London College of Fashion.
The Orange Label Project, Fashion Says NO to Violence Against Women, marks the 20th anniversary of the UNTF and brought together fashion disciplines to unite against violence against women. The competition called for fashion students from around the world, and across disciplines, to produce a piece of work incorporating the project colour orange.
