A show to celebrate the outstanding work from the students of the class of 2023 BA fashion degree

A celebration of Fashion BA

The Class of 2023 Fashion BA are rising money for our graduate collection show. This will be a day of celebration and allowing all students in their final year on Fashion to showcase their collections to friends family and press. It is an exciting time full of innovation and beautiful work. We have been working on theses collections day and night to produce some exciting work and would love your help to create an exciting show to match, and you'll be invited of course! 

Who we are

This is being organised by the show committee on behalf of the whole year cohort, which means this is a completely student run show. We are as mentioned the final year students studying on the Fashion BA course at Kingston School of Art.  

our story

As many know fashion students spend their whole degree working up to create a collection they are proud of. This year is no exception! With so many different and unique styles ranging from womenswear, knitwear and menswear. The 2023 class has worked tirelessly to put together collections to showcase the best of the best of young talented creatives. The show would be a celebration of all the hard work but also to celebrate our time at KSA and our way of leaving Kingston with a bang. 

Your donations couldn't be more important to us. However big or small, every penny counts. The donations given will allow and create a space for students to celebrate their skills to not only make family and friends proud but to show the press. By creating this opportunity it could lead to press coverage for students and job opportunities to help get students set up for after university. 

Where will the money go?

Every single penny of the donations will be used to fund the student show. We are trying our best to get as many people involved as possible but as we all know fashion isn't the best for paying young creatives and that is something we would like to change! So the costs for a production like this are high and we are trying to pull as many strings as possible. 

There will be updates on when the show is and how to get involved.

Costs:

Models: as there is 86 students all showing 4-6 looks we need as many models as possible. The average cost for this is around - £10,000. 

Hair and make-up team around - £1,000

Photographer and team around - £ 1,000 

Video team around - £1,000

Sound and lighting team/equipment around - £1000. 

Catering for people working as this is an all day event around - £400

Show programs around being designed and printed - £200 

Transport of around 344-516 garments around- £400

Total cost is £15,000 and we are hoping to raise £10,000 through crowdfunding with KUBacker.
