London Fashion Weekend
Happy Monday!
This is an exciting week at the Fashion Place because tomorrow we’re setting off bright and early to London Fashion Weekend, with our second year and Masters students!
We’ve been watching the coverage all weekend and are especially enjoying Mulberry’s new designs (we’ve fallen in love with their Roxette in Rose Petal Shearling) and those of Preen by Thornton Bregazzi!
We’re particularly looking forward to the Guy Bourdin photography exhibition at Somerset House. Watch this space for highlights from our trip!

Mid Degree Show at Gray’s School of Art
Here’s a sneak peak at the fashion on display at the Gray’s School of Art mid degree show! We’re looking forward to seeing the finished collections later this year!
Happy Valentine’s weekend!
Happy Friday!
We just picked up some fabulous and unique Valentine’s Day goodies designed by some of our Product Design students at Gray’s School of Art who’ve set up a stall in the Aberdeen Business School atrium. All for a very good cause ❤
Have a lovely weekend! ❤
Research projects
It’s that time of year again and our fourth years are working hard on their Honours dissertations. As always we have a really interesting variety of research projects going on and we’re very much looking forward to reading the results!
One of our students is carrying out research into the use of fashion blogs and is looking for participants (fashion students and non fashion students from 17-30 years old) for a focus group which will take place this month in Aberdeen. If you’re interested in getting involved then please contact Suzy at s.camlin@rgu.ac.uk. Your help is much appreciated!
Fashion Show Project
We’re getting organised for the annual RGU Fashion Show project which will take place on Friday the 29th of May! The students are sending in their choice of team and we’re looking forward to confirming the teams at the official project launch in March!
Guest speaker
We’d like to say a huge thank you to James Storrie, Operations Manager at John Lewis Aberdeen, for providing a really interesting guest lecture for our students today!
“Charity Chic” Project Launch
Today is the launch of our annual “Charity Chic” fashion exhibition project!
Our Fashion Management, Event Management and Public Relations students will be split into 12 teams and assigned a charity. Their task is to source an outfit from their designated charity shop and design an exhibition space to showcase their garment, promote the charity, and which ties in with the overarching theme of Aberdeen Business School’s 50th anniversary celebrations! The students will work together to plan a creative launch night event to take place on Thursday the 16th of April and the exhibition will run for two weeks from this point.
We can’t wait to see what they come up with!
Fashion Construction
Our first year students have been investigating fabric quality as part of their Fashion Construction and Technology module. What better way to do so than make a dress?
February flashback
Today marks the first working day in February, the first day of semester two, and our undergraduate students’ first day on placement. We’re looking back at this time last year with our monthly Annus Moris flashback!
