My 'Kelly Thorne' Internship
Since finishing the June, Free Range Graduate Catwalk show, I have been involved in several shows, smaller companies and have arranged my own photo shoot with a fantastic group of people.
Being involved in so many events has dramatically boosted my confidence, not just within my work but also within myself and I cannot wait to get involved in so much more in the future...
Firstly, I was asked to join the 'Kelly Thorne' team, back in my home town, Cheltenham in Gloucestershire, to help design an A/W '12/'13 Collection which has been a fantastic experience...
...the collection has been going so well with one of our designs winning 'Best Dressed' at York Races, combined with Michelle Foley's stunning head pieces...
