Eclectic
With a history of working with (and teaching) students on the Fashion Retail Management degree course at UCE (now Birmingham City University), we were asked to create a website for their 2007 end-of-year show.
The ‘Eclectic’ theme of the show and the look of the website is loosely based on the stunning work of Brazilian artist Beatriz Milhazes. The bold, floral shapes and vivid colours make the site cheerful, summery and give an uplifting sort of feel.
The final show (in association with Harvey Nichols, no less) was a huge success, as was the website itself – many potential employers contacted students as a result of viewing the site, and an impressive 77% of the new graduates were offered full-time jobs within eight weeks of leaving university.
