Royal College of Art Graduate Show 2010


Rosario Morabito speaks to A Shaded View on Fashion about the Royal College of Art Graduate Show 2010.

“Pretty much every graduate had that balance of creativity and technical skills that are the trademark of the RCA former students ( Christopher Bailey or, more recently, Soren Bach and Holly Fulton).

On the front row, a focused Hussein Chalayan and the super stylist Jane How were looking carefully, taking notes every now and then. I was impressed with the overall quality of the manufacture plus some names really stood out for their clean design concept. I can play the scouting game, and bet on womenswear designers Simone Sommer, Nabil-El-Nayal, Marielle Van de Ven , Victoria Stone. And definitely on the the milliner Zara Gorman, who wowed the crowd with her futuristic polycarbonate cocoonesque hats framing the models heads and faces. Concept research, design awareness and drama: sounds like 2010 RCA graduates are more than ready to break through in the industry.”
