Fairtrade Fashion Show

Hull College students on the Fashion Course at Degree and BTec level will explore the issues around the fashion and clothing industry and the key difference that Fairtrade offers.

Garments will be designed and made using Fairtrade cloth that will be shown at the fashion show.
