Dinosaurs and moustaches - UCOL Fashion 2011


Date 13 May 2011


Ballet and goddesses, dinosaurs and moustaches - UCOL Fashion 2011


Visionary work by Third Year Fashion students at Whanganui UCOL goes on show to the public this month.


The annual exhibition of work by Bachelor of Fashion third year students opens at the Federal Gallery on 24 May.


Student spokesperson Heather Kubiak says this year the focus is on the number 3. “The students are in their third year and the collections are a combination of three outfits.


“Inspiration for the garments is as varied as it is wearable and shows a growing vision, with attention to detail that epitomizes the quality of the Bachelor of Fashion programme. The themes range from ballet to dinosaurs, Greek goddesses to mustaches, futuristic work to suits of armour.”


Programme Leader Amanda Rayner says examples of the students’ work will also compete in a national competition. “They will each choose one of their garments to be entered in Fashion Quarterly’s Young Designer of the Year competition.


Amanda says the final year students have been extremely dedicated in the completion of their mini collections. “The exhibition will be well worth seeing for the diverse vision and interpretation from each student.”


The exhibition will be held in the Federal Gallery on the corner of Taupo Quay and Drews Ave and is open to the public from Tuesday 24 May to Friday 27 May from 11am – 2pm. Entry is free.e
