Last week ex- Fabric Technology student El Reilly (formerly Chantelle) came to talk to our Fabric Technology students who are considering a career in Fashion Design.

El graduated from Massey University, Wellington with first class honours in Fashion Design. She is one of the students who has been selected to show her collection at the Graduate Show, NZ Fashion Week, on 30 August.

The students were inspired to hear El speak about her zero waste approach, where every part of the fabric is used when designing a garment, and what was involved in a Fashion Design degree at Massey.
