Graduate Fashion Week may feel like a lifetime ago but this summer's show of graduates is still having a big impact on the fashion industry. Today it was announced that Manchester School of Art graduate Nabil El-Nayal is the lucky winner of the British Fashion Council's scholarship.
The young designer will take up his place at the Royal College of Art to study an MA in Fashion Womenswear.
Another trend to emerge at this years Graduate Fashion Week was the penchant for navy blue. The shade started to emerge last season in time for the party season but it seems we will be awash with the shade by next Spring. I for one am pleased by the trend. 
Karlie Symone Whitehead has just completed a Fashion BA at the University of Central Lancashire. She showed her feminine collection of pastel knitted dresses last week as part of Graduate Fashion Week and we caught up with her to find out about her inspiration and future plans.
Last week we announced that ASOS would be selling a few select graduate pieces from today, and here they are! The limited edition pieces were made by students from the London College of Fashion. Only one of each piece was made so they're sure to sell out pretty fast.
If you're not interested in the "latest upcoming designer" element of Graduate Fashion Week then it's a great way to get a sneak preview of the trends for Autumn/Winter. Although the established designers presented their Autumn/Winter collections in February at various fashion capitals around the globe, its easy to forget what was actually on show. So this week provided a quick reminder of the things that are sure to be rocking our wardrobes in just a few months. RSS Feed
