BRITISH FASHION COUNCIL SEMINAR

                                                  

Hello!

Today I am going to write about the British Fashion Council seminar I attended on Tuesday - May/23rd. I was invited by my University and I was very glad to get the invite, as it was a very interesting and informative Seminar, where we had the chance to listen to various professionals in the fashion industry, giving us a clear vision of how will face the fashion scene in the real world.
The Seminar was held at the prestigious Harrods in Knightbridge and here are the  list of the speakers:

                                         

  JONATHAN SAUNDERS

He was born in Scotland and is known for his work with prints and use of traditional silk screen techniques. He was named Scottish Designer of the Year in 2005 and British Designer of the Year at the Elle Style Awards in 2008. Among his clients we can find: Madonna, Kylie Minogue and Michelle Obama.

The British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman said she was delighted with Christopher Suarez work, he is a real business man, he achieved so much in a short amount of time and has become one of the world's most influential shoe designers.

As I mentioned before the Seminar was very helpful, it gave us a real sense of how fashion works outside Uni doors. Making us prepared for the fashion industry.

That's all for today folks and see you next post.
