BA (Hons) Bespoke Tailoring
London, an urban voyage through history. The outfits are aimed to subtly interlace elements of the past with the present, whilst remaining strongly anchored in the simplicity, beauty and quality of bespoke tailoring standards. They encompass tradition and heritage as well as reflecting upon a contemporary desire for sustainability and individuality as they are essentially designed to be owned by the wearer. A great input has been placed upon the perfect cut to fit each clientâs taste and comfort, and using the requisite materials which will enhance the clientsâ sartorial elegance and empower their personality.

BA (Hons) Bespoke Tailoring
Magdalena is a determined craft practitioner who believes that in the age of the impersonal approach to the customer and clothing production, it is extremely important to have the ability to create a high quality garment which is made with passion, care and impeccable attention to detail of a craftsman along with contemporary and creative thinking. She believes that by merging the heritage of bespoke tailoring with modern attitude can transform an ordinary garment into a piece of clothing, giving it a life of its own, with the character and personality of both the person who has created it and the individual who wears it.

Jubin Yoo BA (Hons) Cordwainers Footwear: Product Design and Development The concept behind my collection, âPassage of timeâ is ageing â a process that is shared by humans, nature, every object living or non-living. The beauty of ageing is fascinating. The physical outcome of ageing is unpredictable, which creates individuality. Not only do I see footwear as a temporary tool for protecting feet and a fashionable item but I also define shoes as embodying an individualâs life experience. I design classic menâs footwear with a comprehensive understanding of construction with a twist in design. Particularly respecting craftsmanship and focusing on the quality of the products, all the materials and designs are carefully picked and created for prospective wearers. Rather than using vibrant colours to get attention, I insist on using toned down colour leathers to emphasize the design and quality. My collection is made with natural veg-tanned leather with minimum dye for eco-friendly production. jubinyoo@gmail.com

BA (Hons) Technical Effects for Performance
Over the course of my studies in Technical Effects, I have been able to develop a specialized knowledge for application in various areas of performance production. I hope to develop these skills through my current and ongoing work which considers the role technology has to play in the future of theatre design. In particular, I am concerned with how we as designers can adopt an integrated approach which uses technology combined with skilled practice in 3D physical effects to create innovative work that not only experiments with the possibilities of spatial design but also explores new ways a performance narrative can be felt by its audience. I am increasingly interested in the audio/visual experience of a performance environment and how performing objects can affect audience perception. In consideration of this, my most recent work looks at immersive/site responsive theatre that incorporates multi-platform story telling and play to engage the audience with the character's stories. I have been designing interactive elements to be installed within a chosen location that have been built by the characters themselves to lead 'a playing audience' through the narrative space. These elements are built to work with smartphone technology which is encouraged to be used as a narrative aid throughout the performance. The interactive elements themselves hold visual clues that work with sound as communicative objects which help the playing audience to connect with the characters and emotionally involve them in the action. It is the intention that as the audience feel their way through the space they are engaging with the story through sensations in a physical way which I believe has the potential to create a particularly moving and powerful experience. contact: mikylawarr@yahoo.co.uk

BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Womenswear
As a designer from an international background, my collection challenges the perception of East and West and aims to blur the cultural differences to the extent of creating a hybrid aesthetic that belongs to neither. The theme: Cultural Larceny, identifies the aesthetics stolen from the East and adopted by the West in the establishment of their Imperial culture during the Victorian Era. I am interested in how the West perceives the East and their depictions of exotic oddities within Aesthetic Art. The concept of stealing is emphasized through the exploration of Victorian criminals and their shifting identities. Fluidity, ambiguity and revealed construction are key elements within the collection. My work demonstrates the use of interesting pattern cutting techniques and details to describe the amalgamation of various cultures. contact: priscillahywong@gmail.com

I am inspired by colour, movement and textures. Although competant with hand drawn imagery, my main style of illustration is hand painted textures combined with digital manipulation. I aim to create imagery which fuses traditional methods but produces a futuristic and stylish outcome.

BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Surface Textiles
Specialising in fashion knitwear: My graduate collection is about strength, overcoming obstacles and celebrating individuality. Inspired by my own disability, with influences from Beethoven, the romantic period and 18th century menswear, the result is a beautiful juxtaposed knitwear collection combining rebellion, freedom, truth and independence.âdeafness isnât the opposite of hearing, itâs a silence full of soundâ Romantic and elegant knit designs on a masculine silhouette give a twist of the unexpected. Soft, shimmery and delicate yarns combined with heavier textured yarns worked in different formats allow the knitwear to take on different forms of expression. Colour is a huge part of my research and design process, creating different moods and producing various palettes with regards to research and trends.

BA (Hons) Fashion Contour
Diana Auria Harris is a Swimwear and Lingerie designer from London. Winner of the 'Fashion Innovation Award for United Vision' at the London College of Fashion BA (hons) Graduate Runway Show. Auria x Margot Bowman Swimwear collaboration SS13: Photoshoot: Designer: Auria x Margot Bowman Photographer: Jarek Kotomski Stylists: Aaron Francis Walker and India Trusselle Model: Claire Birkholz (Storm models) Hair: Hiroshi Matsushita Make up: Liz Martins Nails: Boom Nails Debut collection from London designer âAuriaâ (Diana Auria Harris). Presenting to you her dynamic, modern and luxury swimwear line in collaboration with illustrator Margot Bowman. The collection is a juxtaposition of many elements. It pulls inspirations from 80âs postmodern fashion with the use of PVC and retro swimwear silhouettes including the high leg line. This is combined with cut-out sections inspired by the clean and geometric shapes of the Bauhaus movement. The prints reference symbols and iconography that are associated with Ancient Greek mythology, focusing on Artemis- the âGoddess of Huntâ. These are twisted into contemporary and whimsical pop graphics by Margot Bowman which create a fun and kitsch aesthetic. The collection uses sprightly brights mixed with pastels intwining hombre and block colour combinations. The shapes combined with the prints gives the collection an overall sexy and playful edge. Along with all the factors that create this collection visually, it is underpinned by ethical elements. The swimwear is made from a new generation fabric that can ensure the best technical performance with maximum respect for the environment. The Econyl 100% recycled hallow polyamide is made from discarded products such as fishing nets, voile and old carpets.
