Fashion Show at Westwood College

04-07-2008   


Westwood School

Over the last month FashionCapital has been working with Rachel Ford on Understanding the Fashion Industry and applying business and enterprise into a school learning environment. On the first introductory session with Jim Forest and Rachel FashionCapital was amazed to see the girls working on actual patterns with the girls of year 9 understanding the elementary basics of pattern cutting and the grain of cloth!

Last night was the accumulation of all of their work and the pupils became the models as well as the designers. Hearts were pounding in time with the music and the whole event was a spectacular success; the girls certainly had the charm and the charisma to become catwalk models for the evening and the garments lived up to all expectations – the Harajuki Girls were particularly impressive.

Jenny commented 'Congratulations to the hard efforts of Rachel Ford, Mrs Jenkins, Jim Forest and of course all the pupils themselves for such a successful evening last night. The girls have been a pleasure to work with and the finale was a night for everyone to celebrate in such a well constructed and professional fashion event.

One of the clear messages from the night was the sense of pride and teamwork that emanated from the entire event. Westwood College is highly innovative in such enterprising concepts.'
