Menswear that spotlights the economic crisis in Zimbabwe features alongside a clothing collection that addresses ocean pollution in this fashion-focused VDF school show by the University of East London.

There are a total of 10 projects in the digital exhibition, all completed by students in their final year of the BA (Hons) Textile Design and BA (Hons) Fashion Design courses taught at the UK university.

While enrolled on the courses, students are invited to "explore heritage craft skills alongside digital media" to develop their own textiles, products and accessory collections for both fashion and interiors.

School statement:

"We are East London's leading fashion and textiles community and pride ourselves on our diversity, inclusivity and creative innovation. This selection of work focuses on some of the amazing collections from our final year degree students. From cultural storytelling to experimental 2D and 3D printing, imaginative fabric manipulation and sustainable textile exploration, we believe our students are pioneers in their individual field.

"Our popular and well-regarded courses, taught by industry professionals, are having an increasingly big impact on the exhilarating and competitive world of fashion and textiles. Fashion is a fast-paced, hands-on course amid the creative hub of East London, preparing students to take their place in the world of commercial fashion. Students learn prototype processes from concept through to construction and product development."

"The Textiles course focuses on textile futures, embracing creative and sustainable design using new technologies, bio textiles and new materials. Students have the opportunity to explore heritage craft skills alongside digital media to create innovative textiles, products and accessories for both fashion and interiors. Both courses offer options to work collaboratively within a highly creative community using our fully equipped fashion and textiles workshops, studios, Mac lab and material archive resource.

"We were hoping to showcase our final collections at Graduate Fashion Week earlier in the summer, but unfortunately circumstances have prevented the physical event from happening. Instead, we present to you a snapshot of some of the wonderful work our students have created this year – the class of 2020."
