Norwich Fashion Week: The Designer's Show

The Designer's Show took place on Tuesday 12th of March at Epic Studios and featured work by local designers and students. I managed to bag myself a second-row seat, then sneakily knelt down at the front when the lights dimmed and the models came onstage. There was an amazing variety of garments and accessories on show, and I was particularly impressed with the younger, innovative designers of Norwich.

Here are my favourite photos from the event:

I can't believe I haven't posted in 3 months. It's not intentional - my final university project has finally arrived, and I have just 10 weeks to finish everything off. Luckily for me, the dissertation part of the deadline has been and gone (I passed!) and now I've just got to focus on creating my zine, Femme Sole, and fundraising so I can have a print run of 50+. The first official editorial, where I collaborated with Midge of Modern Girl Blitz, took place about a month ago, but in order to keep the contents of the zine safe and secret I unfortunately cannot show you these photos. But here's a little preview:

What I can show you, however, are my photographs from this year's Norwich Fashion Week. I've been recruited as a work experience photographer for the Evening News/EDP/Norwich Fashion Week, and have been given assignments for catwalks, events and videos. The first event I attended, IonFashIon at The Forum, was the official launch night for the fashion week, and featured garments and jewellery from local retailers as well as the competitors for a local model contest who showcased their talent on the catwalk. For my brief I was asked to take a video, something I'm not overly confident in particularly as I only had my little Canon 500D at hand. In between video clips, however, I did take some photos. These are a selection of my favourites from the night:
