Kerry Panaggio and Nada da Hab were the tutors behind the vital student training and had extended immense support thought the program.
The aspiring stylists got tremendous exposure in fashion media styling. Students were taught commercial and editorial aspects of styling. They were given a hands-on experience in styling through various class individual and group activities. Students were also sent out for sourcing through which they understood London Markets and brands better. In the end, they were assigned a photo-shoot and were given an opportunity to develop their individual styling portfolio in London.
Apart from the curricular activities, they explored the city as well. Students were taken to various Art and Design Museums, fashion related and historical icon places. They covered placed like The Design Museum, The National Gallery, Victoria & Albert Museum, Harrods, Bricklane Market, Camden Market, Tower Bridge, London Eye, Madame Tussauds etc. Students were excited to experience the River Cruise on river Thames as well. The journey was quiet an experience and students were very happy about it in the end.

Moreover, the styling aspirants had shown great interest in all the activities. I’m delighted to see students going out with great knowledge and acquiring an international portfolio and a certificate from London College of Fashion. The journey went very well with the entire team. I’m glad to be a part of it and the tour will forever be close to my heart.
