The visit to The Fashion Studio was part of a host of fashion related activities that ASOS and The Prince’s Trust were running; from Marketing and CV writing to customising outfits. At The Fashion Studio, there was the opportunity to speak to and learn from Fashion Director, Jenny Holloway about the company, to learn about education within the fashion industry with Fashion Enter’s Apprenticeship Programme and to also learn about different aspects of fashion design, from menswear to print design.  Big Brother star, Maisy James, was also there to talk about her up and coming fashion range.

It was great to meet so many different people from different aspects of the industry and also at different stages in their journey with the fashion industry. A really interesting insight!
