Shelter x GFW

SHELTER X GRADUATE FASHION FOUNDATION ACTIVISM COMPETITION

Following on from the success of the Shoes Have Names project at London Craft Week 2020- I am very pleased to be able to announce that I have been working with Graduate Fashion Week Foundation and Shelter Charity on the launch of a social fashion project. This is an amazing opportunity for final year BA students across multi fashion related disciplines. The aim of the project is to enable students to find their activist voice ‘as the potential future renters’ to help Shelter the homeless charity gain more attention for their important work fighting the housing emergency.
