The Arts University College Bournemouth and Southampton Solent University have also incorporated diversity of body-shape projects into the curriculum post the first Forum last June. More colleges are expected to follow.
“People constantly talk about the economics of emerging markets – Brazil, India and China. Surely it's time to join the dots between commercial thinking and emotional understanding. We live in a diverse world. The fashion industry can send out a more conscious message, develop a more emotionally considerate practice in pursuit of a more lucrative business proposition. It all begins in education. We are indebted to June Barker, Managing Director of Graduate Fashion Week for recognising this too.” conclude Co Founders, All Walks Beyond the Catwalk.
Photocall: 11.15am. June 7th 2011. Victoria Room, Earls Court 2, London, SW5.
Attended by Lynne Featherstone Govt. Minister for Equalities and co Founder Erin O'Connor and models - will take place after the announcement of the All Walks Centre.
All Walks Co Founders Caryn Franklin and Debra Bourne will both receive an Honorary Doctorate this June, in acknowledgment of their work in Industry and Education.
