Fashioning the Decade – UAL students showcase at The Rag Factory, Brick Lane

(Nearest Tube: Liverpool Street)

The Fashion Society at UAL was established in 2008 as an innovative collective for students of all backgrounds to come together over a shared passion for fashion. Encompassing all six colleges of University of the Arts, and their 40,000 students,The Fashion Society provides an outlet for fashion lovers to combine their energies to achieve great things.
Fashioning the Decade will be The Fashion Society’s biggest event to date, giving all University of the Arts students a chance to showcase their work on 6 May 2010. Young designers hold the key to the future and this is a unique opportunity to set the agenda for the next decade.
While making students’ dreams come true, we also want to be part of the greater good and proceeds from the event, which will include a catwalk and a Chinese Auction* of rare art, clothes and more will raise money for Make-A-Wish-Foundation® UK, a charity that grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses. Fashion and fundraising have always shared a good connection, the recent success of London Fashion Week’s Fashion for Relief, raising money for those affected by the Haiti earthquake and Natalia Vodianova’s Naked Heart Foundation, are great examples of this, which we intend to replicate.
Fashioning the Decade will take place at The Rag Factory, a new charitable organisation and venue that supports the creative fabric of London, based in the heart of Brick Lane on Thursday 6 May 2010. After the show there will be an opportunity for different companies, students and charities to discuss the show and network, another way of helping wishes come true and igniting new creative relationships.
