Michael Duncan, Studio Manager at Genesis Studio Edinburgh, said: “We are very pleased to be showcasing the talented work of the students at Edinburgh College of Art, as part of a year-long partnership with Multrees Walk and the college. At Genesis, thoughtful design is at the heart of the brand’s identity, therefore we welcome the opportunity to celebrate creativity and craftsmanship in Genesis spaces. Our Studio was designed to be a versatile space that connects the community, and working with the local students is a fantastic way to do that.”
Professor Mal James, Programme Director, BA (Hons) Fashion at Edinburgh College of Art, commented: “To see our students’ designs and final garments exhibited within Genesis Studio Edinburgh is an amazing opportunity for our students. By taking their ideas out of the college classroom and directly into the city’s heart of fashion, allows their creativity to be seen in the same space as some of the world’s leading brands. This event is truly a celebration of their hard work, talent and innovation.”
