Both Tamia and Laura Silva in the Upper Sixth have successfully been awarded places on the prestigious FAD Fashion Futures Programme.

On FAD’s renowned course of Saturday workshops, they will be supported by specialist tutors and industry mentors to learn the fundamentals of fashion – from research and design to pattern cutting and garment construction. They will produce a sketchbook and portfolio pages, as well as an original paper pattern and toile. Selected participants will then be invited to progress to the Fashion Futures summer school and showcase their work on the London Fashion Week runway in September 2017. Good Luck girls and well done!
