Thrifty goes to Alternative Fashion Week
Thrifty Worked with City & Islington (CANDI) 1st and 2nd year fashion and textile students on grass roots upcycling projects in Autumn and Winter 2011. The reward was a storming live public airing at the 2012 Shoreditch Alternative Fashion Week, Spitalfields, of over 20 glam and attention grabbing designs. Well done ladies!! And look forward to choosing 3 winners to come and work on a paid internship with us in August. PS CANDI is first on the catwalk
