The first batch of Fashion Design students at UCSI (University College Sedaya International) were feted to a graduation high-tea upon the completion of their course.They were joined by four modeling students.
The graduation party was held in conjunction with the first Pro-Fit Forum held at UCSI. Pro-Fit, a fitness specialist, has licensed its fitness programmes to the UCSI School of Fashion Design.
Linda Hurley, Associate Dean of the Faculty of Music, Social Sciences & Design said, “Students from the fashion design course, as well as many external parties had enquired whether UCSI had any course that provide solid technical and professional knowledge in the field of Fashion Design. This prompted us to put together a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Fashion Design with the help from the Marketing department The course is expected to be launched very soon
“Our modeling course has also garnered a lot
of interest, enhanced by the fact that our top student, Gabrielle
Boudville Ashley had successfully entered the finals of the annual MODA
Young Models Competition (MYMC) organised by the Malaysian Official
Designer's Association (MODA)”, said Linda Hurley.
During the graduation, the audience was shown garments designed by students from the Fashion Design course and which were modeled by UCSI’s modeling students. The modeling students also took to the catwalk and paraded garments from various sponsors, which ranged from hip-hop inspired apparel to Victorian-inspired wedding gowns.
