I was sent the first one last week and I'm so pleased with the final outcome, can't wait for a night out to wear it. :)
It is available online now at Apricot here

New Designers 2012

The last week of June I spent in London exhibiting with 11 other graduates from my course. The University of Bolton stand was successful and we all enjoyed it. It was such a good experience for meeting new people,  both students and professionals. It was also great reference for future trade shows I may embark upon on my own. Simple things such as transport, packaging and being on your feet all day will all get easier with experience!

This was a truly exciting week and I look forward to attending again as a visitor in future as I did last year. It will also be interesting to see how connections made here will develop.
