Alder Bridge School annually runs a creative event, pampering busy parents. Newbury College showed its support when Level 3 Art Students, currently in their second year at the College, held a fashion show for the finale of the event.
The College was approached by Alder Bridge School to put on a fashion show at the 'Ladies Indulgence Evening', an evening of demonstrations, pampering and alternative therapies. The art students had recently completed a fashion unit and showed a small selection of their garments together with a selection of fashions from across the eras from 1960s to today.
Jackie Heggs, Art lecturer at Newbury College said, "The Fashion Show at Alder Bridge School provides an opportunity for our students to contribute to the wider community whilst providing a showcase of their creative skills across the fashion and media industry. This type of event enhances vocational learning by giving a real experience of the responsibilities of work in the fashion media industry."
The College showed great enthusiasm with models made up of students from a variety of courses, and the makeup was provided by Level 2 Beauty Students. All of the fashion was provide by Level 3 Art and Design students, with a mixture designed and created pieces and purchased garments.
