Celebrate the New
14-03-2007
We have received an outstanding reception to the Getting It Right First Time initiative. The designers at Croydon College were featured by Croydon Advertiser. The editorial was then spotted by Phil Innocent, MD of Bust Free based in Hampshire.
Phil was so impressed with the concept that he asked to meet the College and the winning designers PRK2Y and Amethyst.
Phil was then equally impressed by the College, Gayle Atkins and the individual designers and has developed a website to promote the two collections, the college and the designers plus he is also buying stock to sell on line. What a fantastic result for everyone involved in this initiative.
Subsequently we were contacted by Wendy Buckley (LINNOC) who is now developing the concept further via Ideas Into Business…ironically this was discussed very early on at the Innovation PAG meetings!
We are delighted that Croydon Advertiser will be again covering the resulting developments and will also be attending the launch party on 20th March 18.00 hrs 21.00 hrs at Croydon Hilton. Weatherhill Suite.
We are also pleased to announce a special guest appearance from a local band Chocolate White and their Dance company.
Can I just personally say a big thank you to everyone who has supported Fashion Enter over the last year. A “special” thanks to Angelina and Lisa for awarding the Fashion Cluster Project to Fashion Enter; this has progressed very well and was live within one month (end February). Also to David Parham at Centrale’s Management Team for their continuing support of Fashion Enter Ltd. Justine Wright and Chris Lee of Equals too.
We are all in an exciting position to make a real difference to and for Croydon. Working together collaboratively is the way forward for us all.
Hope to see as many of you as possible on Tuesday. Sincerely hope that you can all make it.
Kind regards,
Jenny Holloway
