PFF 2012: Student Runway

One of our favourite designs.

Student Runway showcases WA's next generation of fashion talent, selecting items from the top fashion students of our state.  Click on for more photos & see the whole set here.

The event began with a prelude by The Carton, three local designers (Nicole Marrington, Jessica Hogg & Samuel Donaldson) who won a space in Carillon City to develop their SS12/13 collections.

Collection inspired by the nomadic people of Mongolia & their animals.

Jessica Hogg

An eclectic collection inspired by art deco and influenced by her late grandmother.

Samuel Donaldson
