On the 2nd of June I was thankful to be able to go down to London with my college and experience the last day of Graduate Fashion Week. Being able to experience London was just amazing on it's own, let alone be able to see the Best of Graduate fashion week catwalk show.
London is definitely a place where I'm going to experience more of in the future, to see the sights and be a tourist. I'm a big fan of Royal Family history so the tower of London and Buckingham Palace are next on my list. I was rather surprised how much tube tickets were, and the fact that they are all so fast it was better than waiting on trains for hours.
First of all before the show we went to, me and friends went along to Spittalfield market, which we spent quite a bit of time looking round at all the interesting and original pieces. I'm not one for vintage and wacky clothes but I did find everything pretty cool and jazzy, and wished that I was one of those people that could pull off something like this.
But yeah, that's enough about the boring stuff and let me talk about me and my other college friends and lecturers went down to the Old Truman Brewery, where the graduate fashion week was held.
Around the area of the event, me and some friends went and explored the streets a little, just to kill some time before we were allowed to go in and see all the graduates work and the universities. I must say that the street art on the walls are beyond amazing!! You don't see this kind of stuff around my home town, so it's lovely to see such amazing talent being used on small streets in such a big city.
After going about the small streets near the location, we then headed in to look round universities and got to see a large amount of amazing work by the graduate students. Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures of the work and of the Best Of graduate fashion week show, but there are a lot of pictures and footage from the shows and the week in general on blogs, instagram and twitter. But I got a few wee snaps from the show and I thought I would share.
Overall my experience in London was very memorable, and I honestly can't wait to go back and see more of London, being a tourist is rather fun and exciting. I can't wait to share this with Jamie one day.
