The exhibition was a celebration of the work and achievements of MA Costume Making students. The displays of their practical work and original research were the results of their practice dissertation work, where, through applying practice as research, they explored an area of costume of their own choosing.
The exhibition is also a great opportunity for the students to share their work with friends, family, mentors and tutors. Course Leader Toni Bate says it was an emotional evening. “I feel so proud of the students and the quality and quantity of work they’ve created.
“It’s great to see how far they’ve come over the year, not just with their skills but also their confidence. They’ve had the space to experiment and research and become an expert in an area of costume. You can really see the progress they’ve made.”
