Backstage fashion show experience for students

Media Make-Up students from South Essex College had the opportunity to work backstage at the University of East London’s fashion show.

Level 3 Fashion, Theatre and Media Hair and Make-up Studies students produced the hair and make-up looks for models who walked the runway at UEL’s graduate degree fashion showcase.

The show took place at the Hackney Showroom in East London. Students prepped their models with the fashion team in the busy backstage area, experiencing a very realistic industry working environment.

Kirsty Pritchard, Hair & Media Make-Up Lecturer, said: “The students worked well under the pressure of backstage life with tutors on hand to help. Students enjoyed seeing their models come down the catwalk with their make-up on, it was fantastic work experience for them.”
