Last chance for high school students to enrol for free fashion design course

Budding Gold Coast fashion designers still have a few days to enrol for a unique six week fashion design program, specially tailored for high school students.

They will be mentored by some of the best lecturers from the Coast’s various fashion institutes.

The program will take place once a week between 4 and 6 pm.

It will begin on Wednesday 18 February at the Fashion Incubator, located on the corner of Lake Orr drive and Bermuda Street, Varsity lakes.

Students will take part in a program which will provide them with a range of technical and hands-on experience through various stages of the design process, including a sketching workshop.

At the end of the program the students’ sketches will be judged and the six finalists will receive an introductory fashion design course at the Gold Coast fashion institute of their choice.
