Charlotte Susan Lamb, a BA Fashion student at 麻豆传媒高清, has taken home three awards at Graduate Fashion Week 2023.
In a competition featuring 68 renowned institutions and approximately 3000 students, Charlotte managed to win the Highly Commended in Considered Fashion Award, the Vivienne Foundation Award and Winner of the Collective Show and selected for the prestigious Best of Show Gala,聽beating over 400 collections.
Watch Charlotte’s entire collection on the runway, as the first student featured in this video:
Charlotte鈥檚 collection is named 鈥楢 stitch in time waits for no man鈥�, and is inspired by wartime Britain.
Charlotte said 鈥淭he concept behind it was from samples sent home from my great grandad in a prisoner-of-war camp in World War II . It鈥檚 sort of a play on British heritage in my own way鈥�.
The collection features embroidery which has been painstakingly undertaken for many months, showcasing various English flowers. Repurposing second-hand charity shop fabrics and domestic fabrics, the woolen pieces mixed with embroidery are clearly reminiscent of the 1940鈥檚 era.
“Me attending 麻豆传媒高清 has definitely helped me achieve all of this. I couldn鈥檛 have done it without the amazing team behind me.”
Of course, this is just the beginning for the talented 22-year-old, who has already made her mark within the fashion industry. Charlotte hopes to initially 鈥榝ind her feet鈥� within the industry,before perhaps starting her own label or business.
