The Ysh London team headed to the British Fashion Council Graduate Preview
This annual event brings industry insiders from media, recruitment, retail, design, manufacturing, sales, marketing and PR together to preview the work of graduates who will be entering the job market later in the year. Twenty seven leading fashion colleges will be exhibiting portfolios of their 2009 graduates' work.
Exhibiting colleges will be judged for The Drapers College Portfolio Awards in association with the British Fashion Council. The Awards will recognise the college that brings the 'Best Portfolio Based on Overall Presentation' and for the first time, 'The Best Portfolio for Fashion Illustration'.

Manchester School of Art showcased a Digital Presentation Portfolio which is an online portfolio.One student that especially grabbed our attention was Lauren Bowker. She has a unique approach to fashion textiles with an environmental consciousness , by using science and laboratory tested dyes which react and change colour to indicate levels of air pollution (Carbon Monoxide).
